Athletics Rally to Win, 2-1
In a low-scoring affair between the Cleveland Athletics and the Cincinnati Doves, pitcher Joseph Tibbetts was the difference between victory and defeat. The Cleveland right-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 2-1 Athletics win. The 5th-place Doves now sit at 57-61.

A crucial at-bat came with a runner on 2nd and two out in the bottom of the eighth inning. That's when left fielder Timothy Clifford, who is tied for 5th in the WL with a .775 OPS, hit a run-scoring single. The Athletics went on to win.

"The ending was a real humdinger," Clifford told reporters after the game.
