NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1934 American League                Date: 7/20/1934

 

BOSTON AT CLEVELAND Red Sox......... 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 010 - 12 15 0 Indians......... 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 - 2 7 1 Win:Ostermueller(4-8) Loss:Hudlin(5-8) Fritz Ostermueller allowed Bucky Harris to rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game and Eddie Morgan had 3 base hits and 2 RBI at League Park as the Boston Red Sox embarrassed the Cleveland Indians by the lopsided score of 12 to 2. A hugely decisive outburst by Boston in the 9th inning quieted any Cleveland hopes for a victory when they blasted Cleveland for 10 runs on 8 hits. The highlight belonged to Moose Solters who quieted the crowd when he slapped a base-hit bringing in two baserunners. Boston rapped out 15 hits for the afternoon. The victory went to Ostermueller(4-8) who went the distance allowing 2 runs. The loss was charged to Willis Hudlin(5-8). His ERA ballooned from 3.83 to 4.18 as he allowed 8 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings. NEW YORK AT CHICAGO Yankees......... 0 1 0 0 2 2 4 0 0 0 - 9 12 2 White Sox....... 3 0 4 0 0 0 0 2 0 1 - 10 10 1 Win:Heving(2-1) Loss:Van Atta(2-7) Homeruns- A.Simmons-2(9th) Al Simmons launched 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI at Comiskey Park where the Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees in 10 innings 10 to 9. Both teams were tied at 9 runs apiece after nine innings. Finally, Chicago pulled the game out in the 10th inning. Simmons tripled. Luke Appling was next and he hit a sacrifice fly resulting in an exciting win for Chicago and a raucous post-game celebration by the home town fans. Chicago had 10 hits for the afternoon. The victory went to Joe Heving(2-1) who went 3 and 1/3 innings, allowing no runs. Russ Van Atta(2-7) suffered the loss in relief. He surrendered 1 run and 1 hit in 1 inning. WASHINGTON AT ST. LOUIS Nationals....... 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 6 0 - 10 7 2 Browns.......... 2 0 0 1 6 0 0 0 0 - 9 12 2 Win:McColl(4-1) Loss:McAfee(2-2) Save:Prim(1st) Homeruns- B.Myer(2nd), J.Burns(8th) The Washington Nationals nipped the St. Louis Browns 10 to 9 at Sportsman's Park in a hard fought contest. Washington erupted with the game winning runs in the 8th inning when they scored 6 runs on 4 hits. The key at-bat was by Buddy Myer who disappointed the partisan crowd when he launched a rocket-shot out of the park for a Grand Slam homerun (his 2nd of the season). St. Louis had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short. Alex McColl(4-1) got the win allowing no runs in 2 innings. McColl got relief help from Ray Prim who gained credit for his 1st save. Bill McAfee(2-2) was tagged with the loss in relief. He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow an earned run in the game.

In the 2nd inning Philadelphia went on top for good scoring a single run on 2 hits. Dolph Camilli smashed a solo-shot out of the park (his 7th of the season). Philadelphia finished with 13 hits in the victory. The victory went to Moore(2-1) who went the distance allowing 1 run. Pat Malone(7-6) was the loser. He was touched for 9 hits and 3 walks in 6 innings.

Schumacher got help from Carl Hubbell who was credited with his 1st save. Paul Derringer(7-10) was given the loss.

The score was 7 to 2. Brooklyn started with a bang, jumping out to an early lead in their half of the first as they scored 5 runs on 4 base hits. That early scoring was all that Tom Zachary(3-6) needed. Neither team managed to score after the 3rd inning. Bill Swift(6-5) was the loser. He pitched 2/3 of an inning and surrendered 4 hits and 2 walks. ST. LOUIS AT BOSTON Cardinals....... 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 - 2 10 0 Braves.......... 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 - 3 11 0 Win:Smith(3-2) Loss:Dean(10-8) Homeruns- P.Whitney(8th) Pinky Whitney had 4 hits and Bob Smith tossed a complete game as the Boston Braves beat the St. Louis Cardinals in 10 innings by a score of 3 to 2. Both teams were tied at 2 runs apiece after nine innings. Finally, Boston pulled the game out in the 10th inning. Smith slapped a single. After another out, Buck Jordan was the next batter, but he struck out. Wally Berger then delivered a one-base hit. Hal Lee stepped in and he hit a single making Boston the victor and beginning a joyous home town celebration. Boston banged out 11 on the afternoon. The winning pitcher was Smith(3-2) who allowed 2 runs for the game. Dizzy Dean(10-8) absorbed the loss. He surrendered 3 runs and 11 hits in 9 and 2/3 innings.

The game was won by Chicago with a run in the 9th inning. Zeke Bonura reached on an error. Luke Appling followed and he delivered a single. After an out was recorded, Marty Hopkins came to the plate and smacked a single resulting in an exciting win for Chicago and a raucous post-game celebration by the home town fans. Chicago had only 6 hits for the game. Wyatt(4-4) was the winner allowing 3 runs for the game. Herb Pennock(3-1) was hit with the loss in relief.

Babe Ruth stepped up next and he doubled which scored a run. After another out, Bill Dickey stepped up to the plate and he hit a deep fly scoring the final run of the inning. New York rapped out 11 hits for the afternoon. Russ Van Atta(2-6) went 3 innings allowing 2 runs for the victory. Lloyd Brown(4-8) was the losing pitcher in relief. He surrendered 2 runs and 2 hits in 1/3 of an inning. After the game, it took a long while before Walter Johnson emerged from his office. In a subdued tone he answered only a couple of questions. He concluded with, 'Fellows, sorry I'm not in a very talkative mood this afternoon, as I think you'll understand. I'm sure you'll find the banter a lot more light-hearted over in the New York locker room.' PHILADELPHIA AT ST.

Philadelphia finished with 13 hits in the victory. Benton(8-6) allowed 1 run on the game. The losing pitcher was Bump Hadley(4-11). He was hit hard and gave up 11 hits and 6 walks in 8 innings.
