Braves Pound Ten Hits in 6 2 Victory at Fenway Park
Don Carlos Patrick Ragan spun a strong six innings for the Braves as Boston pounded out ten hits to defeat the New York Giants 6 to 2 at Fenway. Eddie Fitzpatrick homered with a man on and Red Smith added a two-base shot as Palmero labored, mired by a fall, and Giants’ pitching changes failed to stem the Miami pact of Braves offense. Pat Ragan and the Braves move on to Chicago for the Western invasion with a comfortable win setting the tone.

Nap Lajoie Leaves Fall River for Philadelphia in 1896
Nap Lajoie was sold from Fall River to a Philadelphia National League team on August 12, 1896. The sale followed an earlier dispute over Frankie Mack and Walter Butler, with tonight’s game described as the fourth meeting between the rivals after two in Boston and one in Lawrence. Fistie Jack Johnson was 27 when he fought Jess Willard, and Willard was also 27. Johnson received 8320,000 if he won or lost. Willard took 25 percent of gross receipts and one third of the picture privilege, though his payoff reportedly did not repay his costs.
