This was a prime example of a game that slowly slipped away. While the Tigers (45-35) maintained an early lead, Boston (57-23) remained within striking distance. Yet at the end of the game, the box score showed just how dominate Detroit was.

Nixey Callahan (13-7) picked up the victory by limiting the opposition to 5 runs (3 earned) on 12 hits, 3 walks, and 2 hit batsmen; Game Score of 45. Jesse Tannehill was knocked out of the game after 6 innings of play, allowing7 runs (4 earned) on 12 hits, 1 walk, and 1 hit batsman; Game Score of 26. Duke Esper covered the final 3 innings in relief, allowing 2 runs (1 earned) on 5 hits.

With a combined 29 hits, 4 walks, and 3 hit batsmen, there were plenty of action on the base paths. Detroit was led by Freddy Parent (4 for 5, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs), Mike Donlin (4 for 5, 1 Run, 1 RBI, 1 Stolen Base), Roger Bresnahan (3 for 4, Double, 1 Run, 1 RBI, 1 Stolen Base), and Tom Daly (2 for 5, Double, 3 Runs). The Boston offense was paced by Chick Stahl (3 for 5, 2 RBIs; American League leading .342 batting average), Frank Chance (2 for 5, Double, 2 RBIs), Bill Lange (3 for 5, RBI). The Americans left 23 runners on base, committed 3 errors, and had 5 runners thrown out.
