Black Cats Harris Blanks Cuban Stars Thursday, April 10th , 1913 Alphonso Harris was sneaky fast, on the mark and hard to hit today. He led the Cleveland Black Cats to victory 1-0, blanking the Brooklyn Cuban Stars on 6 hits. He had no walks and 5 strikeouts.
"You know what he's going to throw. You know what to expect. And you still can't hit it," Brooklyn skipper Frank Burbage told reporters after the shutout loss. "He just had a real deceptive fastball today and he was throwing it for strikes."
