TWIWBL 37.3: Series XXIX Notes - Effa Manley Division
#Cleveland Spiders
A solid start from Pat Malone moved him into a tie for the league lead in victories as Cleveland downed Portland 6-4. Malone is now 13-5 on the year, which ties him for the WBL lead in wins.
#Homestead Grays
Rick Reichardt's 4 RBIs on 2 homeruns--his 18th and 19th of the year--weren't enough as the Grays fell to the Black Barons 11-8.
#Philadelphia Stars
Pete Alexander's return lasted just under 4 innings. He was pitching OK, but strained an oblique, and will miss about a week. Alexander was placed on the DL, with Don Carman called up from AAA.
Jaret Wright was the hard-luck loser despite only giving up 4 hits and 2 runs in 7 innings in one of his better performances of his year against Houston. Wright fell to 3-8 in a game where Aaron Judge's first career homerun was the only tally the Stars could manage.
