Tigers.......... 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 - 3 10 1















Win:Ferrell(8-3) Loss:Auker(9-5)































Wes Ferrell went the distance at Navin Field as the Boston Red Sox came back















dramatically to top the Detroit Tigers by the score of 5 to 3.































Boston came up with the deciding runs in the top of the 9th inning with 3 runs















using 5 hits. Billy Werber led off the inning for Boston when he laced a















one-base hit. Eddie Morgan stepped into the batter's box and he ripped a















base-knock. Roy Johnson then laced a base-hit knocking in a run. Carl















Reynolds stepped in and he hit a single to load the bases. Moose Solters got















his turn next, but he was a strikeout victim. After another out, Lyn Lary















stepped up to the plate and he lashed a base-hit which accounted for two















additional runs. Boston managed 13 in their victory.































The victory went to Ferrell(8-3) who went the distance allowing 3 runs. Elden















Auker(9-5) absorbed the loss. He got hit pretty hard, allowing 12 hits and 4















walks in 8 innings.































Mickey Cochrane was not very talkative after his team's tough loss. 'I'm not















in the mood for questions, but I'm sure Bucky Harris will be glad to talk















about the game as long as you have questions to ask.'































NEW YORK AT ST. LOUIS

Johnny Broaca pitched a complete game and Lou Gehrig went deep and had 2 RBI















at Sportsman's Park where the New York Yankees beat the St. Louis Browns by















the score of 10 to 1.































New York took the lead off Ed Wells in the first inning as they scored 4 runs















on 5 base hits. That early scoring was all that Broaca(6-3) needed. New















York dominated offensively as they scored in 6 different innings.































Wells(2-7) was given the loss. He was hit hard and gave up 10 hits and 3















walks in 5 and 2/3 innings. The New York ballclub's record now stands at

in 10 innings at League Park.































Both teams were tied at 5 runs apiece after nine innings. Philadelphia ended















up winning it in the 10th inning. After two outs Eric McNair got things















rolling when he slapped a one-base hit. Rabbit Warstler stepped up next and















he drew a walk. Charlie Berry then doubled scoring two teammates.















Philadelphia finished with 12 hits in the victory.

baseman Jimmy Dykes had 2 base hits and 3 RBI as the Chicago White Sox















outscored the Washington Nationals 8 to 2.































The game started off with Chicago taking the lead in the first when they















scored 2 runs on 1 hit. The crucial at-bat was provided by Dykes who















electrified Comiskey Park when he laced a single scoring two baserunners.















Both teams finished the game with 8 hits.

Stewart(3-10) ended up with the loss. He allowed 3 runs and 2 hits in 6
