Davenport Defeats Boston Sox 1 0 Behind Fifth Inning Rally
Davenport scored in the fifth on two doubles and a single to edge the Boston Red Sox 1 to 0 at Fenway Park. Bush pitched well for the Sox, but costly base running and missed scoring chances, plus sharp defense from Davenport and Sisler, doomed Boston. Ruth bunted for a hit but was held at third on Scott’s single. McInnis was cut down at third on Sisler’s relay.
