Look at that, we won a game! In a surprising turn of events, the Boston Americans (18-27) topped the Washington Senators (23-22) by a score of 3 to 2 to the delight of the 4,077 hometown fans.

Cy Young (4-7) picked up the win, allowing 2 earned runs on 8 hits and 2 walks; Game Score 66. Rube Waddell (6-6) pitched well but his defense let him down as he allowed 3 runs (0 earned) on 8 hits; Game Score 65.

The Boston hitting-attack was led by Chick Stahl (3 for 3, Run, Stolen Base), Kid Elberfeld (1 for 3, Double, Run), and Bill Lange (1 for 4, Run, RBI). Duff Cooley (2 for 5, Triple, Run, RBI) and Heinie Peitz (3 for 4, Double, Run) played well in the loss.

Player of the Game: Cy Young (Season: #4 / Career: #36)
