NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1934 American League Date: 7/12/1934

















WASHINGTON AT DETROIT



Nationals....... 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 4 0 - 5 11 1



Tigers.......... 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 - 2 8 1



Win:Thomas(5-3) Loss:Hamlin(1-3) Save:Russell(4th)



Homeruns- J.Cronin(5th)







Joe Cronin lofted one into the 'cheap seats' as the Washington Nationals



defeated the Detroit Tigers 5 to 2 at Navin Field.







Tommy Thomas(5-3) pitched a fine game. He allowed 8 hits and 2 walks in 7 and



2/3 innings. Washington finished with 11 hits while Detroit ended up with 8.







Thomas was helped out by Jack Russell who recorded his 4th save. Luke



Hamlin(1-3) was given the loss. He surrendered 4 runs and 7 hits in 7



innings.







NEW YORK AT CLEVELAND



Yankees......... 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 3 - 4 9 0



Indians......... 0 0 0 2 4 0 0 0 - 6 9 1



Win:Brown(4-7) Loss:Murphy(5-5) Save:Bean(2nd)



Homeruns- B.Ruth(8th), B.Dickey(6th)







In a tight game it was the Cleveland Indians 6, the New York Yankees 4 at



League Park.







New York never recovered after Cleveland took the lead in the 4th inning



scoring 2 runners on 3 hits. The big moment was provided by Hal Trosky who



made the Cleveland fans a happy lot when he laced a base-hit scoring two



baserunners. New York threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short.







Lloyd Brown(4-7) was the winner allowing 4 runs in 8 and 2/3 innings. Belve



Bean earned his 2nd save. Johnny Murphy(5-5) absorbed the loss. He allowed



Cleveland 6 runs in 4 and 2/3 innings of work.







Despite losing Joe McCarthy was optimistic after the game. 'We'll get over



this one. Sometimes the breaks fall your way, sometimes they don't. Any one



of a dozen little things go different, and we come out on top.'
