Tris Speaker Sidelined by Flu Hurts Indians Schedule
Boston fans learn Tris Speaker was found ill with influenza by Dr. Clift, causing him to miss the final game with the Red Sox. Speaker had been feverish for 10 days yet stayed with the team, later improving enough to join the trip to Detroit. The flu has disrupted several Indians players, likely contributing to recent poor performances before reaching Boston.
