NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1934 American League                Date: 9/11/1934



 

BOSTON AT DETROIT Red Sox......... 2 3 2 0 0 2 0 2 0 - 11 16 2 Tigers.......... 0 1 4 0 0 0 1 2 2 - 10 12 1 Win:Rhodes(13-12) Loss:Auker(14-8) Save:Mulligan(2nd) Homeruns- R.Johnson(6th), E.Morgan(5th) Roy Johnson went deep and had 3 RBI at Navin Field where the Boston Red Sox beat the Detroit Tigers by the score of 11 to 10. Johnson enjoyed a fine day at the plate. He doubled which scored a run in the 1st inning, smashed a two-run homer (his 6th of the season) in the 6th inning and doubled in the 8th inning. Detroit threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short. Gordon Rhodes(13-12) was the winner allowing 8 runs in 7 and 1/3 innings. Joe Mulligan recorded the save, his 2nd. Elden Auker(14-8) was the losing pitcher. He was knocked around, surrendering 7 runs in 2 and 1/3 innings. 'This was a tough loss,' said Mickey Cochrane, 'the kind that sticks with you for awhile.' PHILADELPHIA AT CLEVELAND Athletics....... 0 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 - 7 13 1 Indians......... 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 - 3 7 1 Win:Caster(1-0) Loss:Winegarner(3-5) Homeruns- E.Averill-2(33rd) Eric McNair had 4 hits and 2 RBI at League Park as the Philadelphia Athletics beat the Cleveland Indians by the count of 7 to 3. George Caster(1-0) pitched well for Philadelphia in their victory. He was reached for 5 hits and no walks in 8 innings and served up 2 'big flies'. Philadelphia had 13 hits overall, while Cleveland had 7. Ralph Winegarner(3-5) was tagged with the loss. He was unable to control the Philadelphia offense and allowed 9 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings. WASHINGTON AT CHICAGO Nationals....... 0 0 0 1 1 2 0 1 0 - 5 11 2 White Sox....... 2 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 - 4 8 1 Win:Russell(9-5) Loss:Stine(0-1) Homeruns- J.Stone(4th), J.Hayes(1st), J.Dykes(9th) Jack Russell was able to finish what he started and was credited with a complete game at Comiskey Park where the Washington Nationals beat the pathetic Chicago White Sox 5 to 4. Russell(9-5) pitched a fine game. He went 9 innings surrendering 8 hits and 3 walks and allowed 2 gopher balls. Chicago had a chance in the 9th but they came up short. Lee Stine(0-1) was hit with the loss in relief. Jimmy Dykes was subdued after the ballgame, 'That one really hurts. If our guys had simply played more fundamentally sound, we could have won that one. That is what really ticks me off!'
