The Vancouver Beavers hammered Butte 18 to 10 as Butte’s fielding collapsed and errors piled up. Leifer, a 20 year old prospect, saw late game duty as Leiter’s rough relief and Roy Grover made key plays despite miscues.
In Vancouver B C the Indians fail to hold and the Beavers surge for three early runs after Murphy and Hamilton ignite a rally. Leifer pitches stoutly for Vancouver as Meikle and Mentha struggle for hits. Hamilton's infield homer caps a rough night for the Iron Men before Seattle and Great Falls contest.
A fragmentary 1915 baseball column discusses the Cleveland Browns and their rough Eastern road trip. It notes potential for a pennant chase if they perform well, contrasts with St Louis, praises Moran and Alexander, and touches on a fan query about a baserunner colliding with a third baseman.
The Philadelphia American club announced signings for next season featuring Ping Bodie from San Francisco in the Pacific Coast League, Ellis Johnson and Bates from Vernon, Cal, Thrasher of Atlanta and Grover of Butte, Mont. Also listed are Wolse and Brown from Harrisburg, Parnham of Raleigh, and an infield prospect from unspecified. The moves aim to bolster the Southern association roster for fall and spring.
The record notes a year of his career with 31 victories making him the sole 31-game winner in the majors as Matty and Walsh stepped down. He is praised as baseball's greatest pitcher today and, if afforded another World Series opportunity, could become a different Alexander from the 1915 season silhouette.
