It always feels good to win, but today's victory was extra special as it brought the team back to .500 on the season. In picking up the 8 to 3 win, the Boston Americans (28-28) dealt the St. Louis Browns (24-32) their 7th consecutive loss. Boston now sits in 4th place in the American League standings, 8 games behind the 1st-place New York Highlanders (36-20).

Jesse Tannehill (8-6) picked up the win, allowing 3 runs (0 earned) on 6 hits, 1 walk, and 2 hit batsmen; Game Score 69. With the win, Tannehill now has 6 wins in his last 7 decisions and has lowered his ERA from 3.62 to 2.54 on the season. Bill Dinneen (1-6) took the loss after allowing 8 earned runs on 13 hits and 1 walk in 8 2/3 innings of play. Bill Magee covered the final 1/3 inning on just 2 pitches.

The Boston hitting-attack was fairly evenly dispersed with Bill Lange (3 for 5, Homerun, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs), Frank Chance (2 for 4, 2 RBIs), and Kid Elberfeld (2 for 4, Run, RBI, Stolen Base) having a fine day at the plate. Bill Hassamaer (1 for 3, 2 RBIs), Jimmy Barrett (2 for 4, Triple), and Charlie Babb (1 for 3, 2 Stolen Bases) performed in the loss.

Player of the Game: Jesse Tannehill (Season: #8 / Career: #48)
