Game 88: Boston Americans vs. Washington Senators
An outstanding pitching performance by Jesse Tannehill powered the Boston Americans (47-41) to an 8 to 0 win over the Washington Senators (38-50). This marked Tannehill's 6th win in his last 7 decisions.
The pitching gem that Jesse Tannehill (14-8) tossed was a thing of beauty; scattering 5 hits and hitting one batsman while striking out 4 batters in his 95 pitch shutout effort; Game Score 81. Frank Kitson (3-3) lasted 8 2/3 innings in which he allowed 8 runs (3 earned runs) on 13 hits and 1 hit batsman; Game Score 38. Jock Menefee covered the final 1/3 innings.
The Americans' batters were seeing the ball well today, as they smacked the ball to all corners of the field. Leading the way were Bill Lange (3 for 4, Double, Triple, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs, and Stolen Base), Frank Chance (2 for 5, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs, Stolen Base), and Chick Stahl (1 for 3, 2 RBIs). Cy Seymour (2 for 3, Triple) and Kid Gleason (2 for 3) played well in the loss.
Player of the Game: Jesse Tannehill (Season: #14 / Career: #54)
