Blazing Boston Red Sox surge mirrors 1914 glory
The Boston Red Sox climbed from seventh to first in seven weeks, matching a miracle run by the 1914 Braves. They beat the Indians 3-0 for their 12th straight win, while the Athletics split a doubleheader with Detroit. Joe DiMaggio homered twice in a Yankees sweep of the White Sox, and the Braves split with the Cardinals as Bob Elliott and Jeff Heath hit late homers for an 8-6 win.
