In the opening frame Long beat a slow ride, Bailey forced at second, and a double steal produced a run as Hatley and Long moved. Flick tripled, Williams scored on a fielding play, and Elberfeld’s defense helped sustain the rally with a run and hit. The middle innings featured scattered hits, walks, and misplays, including multiple no-run frames, until late in the game when Smith tripled for a run, and Bisland, Dunn, and Conzelman produced a sequence of one-run and two-hit frames. The seventh and eighth saw pitchers change and brief bursts of offense, ending with a final tally of one run in the eighth on Smith's triple and a later run-scoring double by Dunn.
