In Brockton, June 12, pitcher Shears and third baseman Flaherty led the win over Lowell. Flaherty drove in all three Brockton runs, stole a base and homered, while Shears featured strong pitching and defense. Flaherty, a Worcester recruit, shows big league potential, though needs patience at the plate.
Fighting from behind to take the first game of the Braves Reds series in Cincinnati, the Braves won 7 to 3 in a contest filled with surprises as Rudolph led the comeback against the Reds.
Rudolph slumps in first inning as Reds draw nine runs by half game. Devore and Almeida spark Reds with strings of hits including a triple by Almeida and late scoring by Maranville. Maranville turns a rare triple play for Red fans, ending the Reds threat. Boston answers with timely doubles from Titus and Mann and later runs by Rudolph Myers and Connelly. Final score pending.
New York beat Pittsburg 6 to 5 in the first game of the series as Merkle, Murray, Meyer, and Snodgrass fueled a three run second inning and a late three run eighth. Tesreau struggled with control and fielding errors aided Pittsburg’s scoring, while Camnitz avoided a quick finish until the seventh.
In St Louis on June 12, Alexander starred as Philadelphia defeated St. Louis 7 to 1. Alexander scored two runs and drove in three, while the Phillies struck in the fourth inning for four runs and added three more in the sixth. Dolan struck out three with men on base, and Roberts joined late to catch for the Cardinals. Paskert Magee and Withee fueled Philadelphia's offense with multiple hits, as Steele and Burk were tagged for timely hits.
June 12 at Shibe Park a large black eye on Cleveland left fielder Jack Graney drew attention as fans and players debated its origin. The scene reflected the tense mood among the Cleveland group after a notably unsettled baseball afternoon.
City buzzes after yesterday's Boston game as Graney and pitcher Vean Gregg allegedly quarrelled. Manager Joe Birmingham denies any fight, calling it a gross libel and insisting the players are friends. Gregg suffered a facial cut from a mascot bite while Graney reportedly got a black eye during batting practice.
Gene Sullivan of Melrose High protests a June 11 Suburban League game at Medford claiming Medford pitcher Al Donnellan used an illegal delivery by stepping back before pitching, bringing him off the rubber.
A report claims a private North Carolina track produced a 4m 1.21s mile by Richard Little, defeating Norman Taber, but skeptics question timers and legitimacy while other sports chatter covers Harvard Cornell crews tennis and upcoming events. Notable notes mention Joe Wood's 1912 pitching, amateur bicycle racing, and preps for Caledonian Grove athletic games on June 17.
The June 4 loss to St Louis was charged to Christy Mathewson rather than Kid Wiltse or any other pitcher. The report attributes the defeat to Mathewson's pitching performance in the decisive innings.
