Game 8
April 21 - Reynolds vs Russell
Pressure. The White Sox are relentless with their offensive pressure. Walk or single, steal a base, steal another, score on a passed ball. The Tigers out hit the Sox 12 to 11, threw 3 runners out at the plate, cut 2 runners stealing and yet they lost 5-4 when Eddie Collins Sr. lined a double up the gap with 2 out in the 9th scoring SP Reb Russell. Six stolen bases in all were too much for Doc Reynolds in spite of having the tying runner on 3rd base in the 9th with Cobb at bat but he left the 4,235 in attendance disappointed when he meekly popped out.
The Tigers are now 3-5 and just a half game out of last.
