The Philadelphia fans enjoyed the offense provided by Davis. He tripled in the 1st inning, electrified the crowd with a Grand Slam home run (his 7th of the season) in the 2nd inning, delivered a one-base hit in the 4th inning and laced a base-knock in the 6th inning. Neither team managed to score after the 4th inning. Collins(14-12) went the distance for the shutout. Dazzy Vance(3-7) was the loser. He gave up 8 runs in 4 innings of work. 'Davis led the way - we just jumped on his back and let him take us,' Collins said. 'I'm glad I don't have to face him. I'm glad he's on my team.'
