Phils Poised for Early Cellar Berth As Braves Hammer 10-0
The Philadelphia Phillies slumped to a 10-0 defeat at Boston as Johnny Hutchings pitched a four hitter and the Phillies extended their record to 15 losses in a row. The Braves, led by Newblood and Money, moved within 343 games of the Giants while Pittsburgh and Brooklyn won to tighten NL standings. In other games, Detroit and Washington strengthened their leads, and St Louis slipped. The Phils face renewed dismissal and Cincinnati rainout looms over the NL nightcap.
