Chicago
(AL) 12 Boston (AL) (H) 0 (GM 1)
The
White Sox got off to a fast start, scoring three times in the top of the first,
all runs coming home after there were two outs. Dutch
Leonard (13-2, 1.72) was allowed to stay in the game, and he got through
the next three innings unscarred, but in the fifth Chicago came alive again and
scored four runs, all runs coming home after there were two outs in the inning.
Lefty
Williams (7-3, 2.19) held the Red Sox to only three hits and went all the way
for the Game One shutout victory.
Chicago
(AL) 1 Boston (AL) (H) 0 (GM 2)
The
White Sox wanted to start their second half of the season hot, and defeating the
league-leading Red Sox in both ends of a doubleheader seemed to be a good place
to start. Reb
Russell (7-5, 2.67) threw a four-hit shutout to get the Game Two win, with Carl Mays
(7-3, 1.63) taking the loss. Chicago's only run came on a solo homerun (2) by
first baseman Jack
Fournier in the top of the second.
Note: On this date in 1916, Chicago swept a
doubleheader in Boston by shutting out the Red Sox in both games.
New York
(AL) (H) 2 Cleveland 0
New York
starter Bob
Shawkey (8-3, 0.80) came into the game with a league-leading 0.96 ERA, and
he improved on it by shutting out Cleveland on three hits, plus Shawkey singled
home the Yankees' second run of the game. Ed Klepfer
(2-6, 1.73) had his second consecutive strong outing, but defensive miscues led
to two unearned runs in the bottom of the seventh, and Shawkey took home the
win from there.
Chicago
(NL) (H) 1 Boston (NL) 0
The Braves outhit the Cubs 3-2 in a pitcher's duel, but right fielder Max Flack was able to double home shortstop Rollie Zeider in the bottom of the third for the game's only run, making a winner of Mike Prendergast (3-1, 1.07). Frank Allen (3-2, 1.05) was the hard-luck loser.

Frank
Miller (5-6, 2.46) held the Giants to only four hits as he went all the way

doubleheader, but took the loss.
Philadelphia
(NL) 12 St. Louis (NL) (H) 7
The
Cardinals jumped on Eppa Rixey
(8-3, 1.47) for five unearned runs in the bottom of the second, but the

it close, but then the visitors exploded for four more runs in the top of the
eighth to lock this game up.

Boston
(AL) (H) 6 Chicago (AL) 2 (GM 1)
Boston
starter Rube
Foster (5-4,2.39) initially declared he wasn't ready to take the mound, so Babe Ruth
grabbed his glove and pitched the first inning. Foster, now properly warmed up,
took the mound in the second, gave up a single run, and then shut down the White
Sox thereafter. A three-run third gave Foster the lead he needed, the big hit
being a two-out two-run single by backup first baseman Del Gainer.
Boston
(AL) (H) 3 Chicago (AL) 2 (GM 2)
The
White Sox got on the board first with a run in the top of the sixth, but in the
bottom of the inning a two-run single by second baseman Jack Barry
put the Red Sox on top. Babe Ruth
(15-4, 1.77) went all the way for the win over Mellie
Wolfgang (4-3, 2.51), although Chicago was able to threaten in the top of
the ninth when a throw glanced off the glove of first baseman Dick
Hoblitzell allowed a run to score and pull Chicago to within one run, but
Ruth was able to work through the final few outs with no further issue.
New York
(AL) (H) 5 Cleveland 4 (GM 1)
The
Yankees scored three times in the bottom of the seventh to tie the game at 3-3, only to see the Indians regain the lead with a run in the top of the eighth.
New York was not to be denied as they scored two more times in the bottom of
the ninth when second baseman Joe Gedeon
lined a shot that brought home Wally Pipp
with the game-winning run.
Cleveland
3 New York (AL) (H) 2 (GM 2)
The
Yankees tried to make it interesting in the bottom of the ninth again as a
two-out E-5 on Terry
Turner allowed a run to score and cut the Indians' lead down to one run, but
Grover
Lowdermilk (3-2, 3.08) got the final out for the Game Two win over Ray Keating
(4-6, 6.64)
St.
Louis (AL) 12 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 2 (GM 1)
The A's
scored two runs in the bottom of the second to take a short-lived two-run lead,
but the Browns' bats woke up, and the visitors won in a convincing fashion.
A five-run top of the ninth allowed Ernie Koob
(5-1, 1.30) to cruise home with the Game One win.
St.
Louis (AL) 6 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 1 (GM 2)
The
Browns slowly built a small lead, but then late in the game they added more
than enough runs to lock this game up. Earl
Hamilton (3-7, 3.93) kept the A's off the scoreboard until the bottom of
the eighth, and he held the home team to only four hits in the game and got
the win over Bullet Joe
Bush (9-7, 2.57).
Detroit
8 Washington (H) 7 (GM 1) (14)
The
Nationals scored three times in the bottom of the seventh to tie the score at
4-4, but neither team could add on from there, and it was off to extra-innings.
Both teams scored a run in the tenth, and both teams scored two runs in the
eleventh, but finally the Tigers loaded the bases with no outs in the top of
the fourteenth, and then promptly hit into a 1-2-3 double play to prevent a run
from scoring. Now with two outs, a passed ball put the Tigers ahead for good,
with George
Cunningham (8-4, 2.49) picking up the win with five innings of solid
relief.
Detroit
9 Washington (H) 4 (GM 2)
The
umpires hurried the players back onto the field to ensure Game Two could be
completed after Game One's extra innings, and Detroit took advantage, scoring
three runs in the top of the second off Walter
Johnson (11-9. 2.19) and then powering their way to an easy win. Bernie
Boland (2-3, 3.89) got a spot start for the Tigers and went all the way for
the win
Philadelphia
(NL) 7 Chicago (NL) (H) 0
New York (NL) 6 Cincinnati (H) 3
New York
started off with first-inning homeruns from left fielder George J.
Burns (2) and right fielder Dave
Robertson (4), but an E-4 and an E-6 in the bottom half of the inning
allowed the Reds to tie the score at 2-2 after the first inning. The Giants
kept up the pressure and scored single runs in four different innings afterward
to win the game going away for Pol Perritt
(9-4, 1.27).
Boston
(NL) 2 Pittsburgh (H) 0 (16)
Boston
third baseman Red Smith
opened the top of the sixteenth inning with a no-doubt-about-it solo homerun
(2) that broke the scoreless game, and Jesse
Barnes (3-5, 2.92) was able to pick up the win in relief of Tom Hughes,
who allowed two hits in his thirteen innings of work. Erv
Kantlehner went fifteen innings of shutout ball, but Elmer
Jacobs (3-3, 3.92) took the loss in relief.
Brooklyn
7 St. Louis (NL) (H) 2

(6-6, 1.77).
New York
(AL) (H) 6 Cleveland 3 (GM 2)
The
Indians' woes continue as they led 3-0 after the top of the fourth, but by the
end of the fifth the Yankees had tied the score at 3-3. Then, in the sixth,
Cleveland starter Al Gould
(0-2, 12.00), only recently called up and made his first start, got two quick
outs, but he couldn’t get a third out, and New York scored three more times. Ray Fisher
(9-6, 3.69) went all the way for the Game Two win and the doubleheader sweep.
St.
Louis (AL) 6 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 3 (GM 1)
The
Athletics put up a fight, but a three-run fifth inning, capped off by a two-run
homerun (4) from first baseman George
Sisler, put the game out of reach for Eddie Plank
(5-8, 2.50) and the Browns. George
Hesselbacher (0-3, 4.56) took the Game One loss.
St.
Louis (AL) (H) 8 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 0 (GM 2)
The
Browns led 3-0 after the third, and then they put up a three-spot in the sixth

went all the way for the shutout victory.
Detroit
1 Washington (H) 0 (11)
In the
top of the eleventh, with a runner on second, Washington pitcher Harry
Harper (10-9, 1.64) successfully fielded a sacrifice bunt attempt, but he
airmailed his throw to first base down the right field line, and Harry
Coveleski (14-5, 1.84) came across to score the only run.
Chicago
(NL) (H) 12 Philadelphia (NL) 1
Al Demaree
got the start for the Phillies but found himself ejected when he struck out to
end the Philadelphia second inning, and then used some inappropriate language
directed at the home plate umpire. The Phillies bullpen brought a match to a
gasoline spill, and the Cubs ran away with it from there. Chicago scored three
times in the third, and then added four more in the fourth, the big hit being a
two-out three-run homerun (9) by center fielder Cy Williams.
Gene
Packard (2-7, 4.06), now ably supported, went all the way for the win.
Cincinnati
(H) 4 New York (NL) 0
The
Giants started the day tied for fourth place with Boston, the two teams sitting
3.5 games behind second-place Cincinnati, with both teams waiting to pounce
should Cincinnati's early-season hot streak ever come to an end. The Reds
pushed across a run in the bottom of the first to take a quick 1-0 lead, and
then in the seventh, second baseman William
"Baldy" Louden stroked a two-out two-run single to bump the lead
up to 3-0. Al Schulz
(8-7, 1.69) went all the way for the shutout victory over Fred
Anderson (4-8, 3.33) as the Giants could never get their offense started in
today's game.
Boston
(NL) 7 Pittsburgh (H) 1
After an
extended absence, Boston's Dick
Rudolph (5-7, 2.48) returned to the mound today and kept Pittsburgh
scoreless until the bottom of the eighth as he went all the way for the win. Boston

(8-4, 1.02).
St.
Louis (AL) 3 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 1
The
first two batters in the Browns lineup, left fielder Burt
Shotton and third baseman Ernie
Johnson, started off the top of the first by reaching first, stealing
second base, and then scoring on an ensuing single. Carl
Weilman (9-7, 2.33) kept the A's off the board until the bottom of the eighth
as he went all the way for the win over Jack Nabors
(4-10, 3.31).

(4-4, 3.17).
Chicago

The
Robins jumped on Bob Steele
(2-5, 5.36) for three runs in the second and then two more in the third, before

end wasn't really ever in doubt.
Brooklyn
4 St. Louis (NL) (H) 0 GM 2)
Jeff
Pfeffer (14-4, 1.07) threw a three-hit shutout to get the win and the

Philadelphia
(NL) 5 Chicago (NL) (H) 1
Eppa Rixey
(9-3, 1.43) had his no-hitter broken up with one out in the bottom of the
eighth when pinch-hitter Frank
Schulte lined a single. The offensive heroics in this game went to Phillies
left fielder George
"Possum" Whitted who hit a solo homerun (6) in the top of the
second, and then he added a two-out three-run homerun (7) in the sixth to lock
the game up for Rixey and the Phillies.
Cincinnati
(H) 3 New York (NL) (H) 1
The Reds
offense suddenly came alive in the bottom of the sixth when a single, a double,
and then two more singles accounted for three runs. Pete
Schneider (7-8, 2.26) only allowed three hits to tie Giants, while Rube Benton
(6-4, 1.93) also allowed only six hits in the game, but they all came in a
bunch when they were needed.
Pittsburgh
(H) 3 Boston (NL) 0
Bob Harmon
(5-4, 1.92) shut out the visiting Braves on five hits as he went all the way
for the shutout victory. Back-to-back triples by Honus

A
five-run fifth locked the game up for the Red Sox, the big hit being a two-out
three-run double off the bat of left fielder Duffy Lewis.
Rube
Foster (6-4. 2.32) went all the way for the win over Earl
Hamilton.
Boston
(AL) (H) 6 St. Louis (AL) 3 (GM 2)
A
four-run second spotted Babe Ruth
(16-4, 1.84) with a lead, and the Red Sox rolled to the doubleheader sweep over
the Browns.
Note:
The BBR box
score for this game showed that Boston second baseman Jack Barry
started the game, was pinch run for, and then resumed playing afterward. A
coach, Heinie
Wagner, with the agreement of the Browns, had been allowed to pinch-run,
and then to allow Barry to return to the play. In this case, Barry had been
hit-by-pitch in the first inning, so one can assume it was enough of an injury
to require some temporary assistance. I have seen this specific instance in
another replay, so while it is rare, it is something that was allowed in
baseball at this particular time.
In the
replay game, Barry was hit-by-pitch in the fourth inning. Since I couldn't
replace him in the lineup and then restore him to the lineup afterwards, he was
allowed to stay in the game and resume his position, and Wagner got his
pinch-run appearance later in the game.
New York
(AL) (H) 6 Detroit 4
The
Tigers scored four times in the top of the sixth to take a 4-1 lead, the big
hit being a two-run triple by Hooks Dauss

it close. In the bottom of the eighth the Yankees rallied for three runs, the
big hit being a two-out two-run double by backup third baseman Luke Boone.

Mogridge (4-3, 2.48) went all the way for the win.
Philadelphia
(AL) (H) 4 Chicago (AL) 1 (GM 1)
The
Athletics scored first with two runs in the bottom of the third, and Tom Sheehan
(4-5, 4.96) went all the way for the Game One win. Second baseman Otis Lawry
singled home two runs in the bottom of the seventh to provide some insurance
runs for Sheehan.
Chicago
(AL) 6 Philadelphia (AL) (H) 0 (GM 2)
A
four-run fourth sparked the White Sox to the Game Two win, the big hit being a
two-run single by first baseman Jack
Fournier. Joe Benz
(3-5, 2.84) went all the way for the shutout victory over Bullet Joe
Bush (9-8, 2.64).
Washington
(H) 3 Cleveland 1
With the
game tied at 1-1, Washington second baseman Eddie
Foster led off the bottom of the eight with a walk, and then hustled his
way around to third base on a wild pitch. Center Fielder Clyde Milan
then singled him home with the lead run, and Walter
Johnson (12-9, 2.13) closed out the game with the victory over Jim Bagby
(6-7, 1.88)

(H) 14 Philadelphia (NL) 0 (GM 2)
After
having been bottled up by Grover
Alexander in Game One, the Pirates came alive and pounded George
Chalmers (1-3, 8.16) for nine runs (five earned) in the first three innings
of the game and then went on to pound the Phillies bullpen after that. Al Mamaux
(8-12, 2.39) gave up six hits on his way to the shutout victory in Game Two.
St.
Louis (NL) (H) 1 New York (NL) 0
Red Ames
(9-4, 1.91) singled home shortstop Roy Corhan

Fred Toney
(16-4, 1.32) kept the Braves hitless until the seventh inning as he went all

doubled home third baseman Buck Herzog,

Toney a little cushion.

The

Doolin picking up three timely RBI's in the midgame that put an end to
Meadows' day.
