Game 6: Detroit Tigers vs. Boston Americans
This is the type of performance that I have come to expect from pitcher Johnny Lush. In what turned out to be an outstanding outing for Lush, the Boston Americans (5-1) topped the Detroit Tigers (3-3) by a 4 to 0 score.
Picking up the win was Johnny Lush (2-0) who tossed the complete game shutout in which he permitted just 3 hits, 1 walk, and 1 hit batsman in his 95-pitch gem; Game Score 84. Veteran pitcher Kid Nichols (0-2) was burdened with the loss after allowing 4 earned runs on 7 hits, 2 walks, and a balk in 8-innings of play; Game Score 53.
While the offense was not as active as it has been in recent games, Boston was led by John Farrell (1 for 4, Run, Stolen Base), Johnny Lush (2 for 3, Run, Stolen Base), and Danny Shay (1 for 4, 2 Runs, RBI). Danny Fultz (2 for 4) played well in the loss.
Player of the Game: Johnny Lush (Season: #1 / Career: #23)
American League Standings: Tied 1st Place
