While things got a little too close in the 9th inning for the liking of the 8,267 fans in attendance, the Johnny Lush led Boston Americans (71-48) topped the visiting Washington Senators (65-54) by a 4 to 2 score. The win capped the 3-game sweep and extends Boston's American League lead to 6-games.

While he struggled with control today, Johnny Lush (17-12) somehow navigated his way through the challenges to pick up the win by limiting the Senators to 2 earned runs on 3 hits, 7 walks, and 1 wild pitch; Game Score 73. Casey Patten (8-12) was burdened with the loss after allowing 4 earned runs on 14 hits and 1 walk in 8 innings of play; Game Score 38.

The Americans had several outstanding hitting performances today, led by Fred Clarke (4 for 4, 2 Triples, 3 Runs), Frank Chance (2 for 3, Run, 2 RBI, Stolen Base), and Bill Lange (2 for 4, Triple, 2 RBI). Kid Gleason (1 for 3, RBI) played well in the loss.
