Baseball Notes From The Old Fan On A Weekend Slate
Brooklyn increased its National lead by defeating Cincinnati as Moran's Clan dropped two in a row. The Indians beat the Senators to trim the gap to a game and a half while Gleason's Sox beat the Yanks. St Louis pounded the Athletics 17 to 8 as the Giants beat Pfuwnsberg 4 to 3 and the Superbas beat the Reds 3 to 2. If trends hold, the two leagues may be decided by season’s end with Speaker earning praise for guiding the Indians after Ray Chapman’s tragic death. Babe Ruth struggled against the Sox as two infield hits were his only marks in a poor series for the great slugger.
