Cronin Crushes Three Pinch Homers for Sox Victory
Joe Cronin, 36, belted three pinch hit homers in four at bats across a doubleheader against the Athletics, lifting the Boston Red Sox to a 5-4 win in game one and an 8-7 victory in game two. Cronin homered in the seventh inning of the opener to tie the game after Babe Barna and Skeeter Newsome reached base. The second game featured Cronin driving in runs late as Boston erased an 8-4 deficit. The doubleheader helped Boston move up to third in the American League standings as Detroit fell to Cleveland. Other MLB actions included the Yankees edging the Senators 9-8, Duke Appling fueling a White Sox 4-3 13-inning win over the Browns, and Elmer Riddle limiting the Cardinals in Cincinnati’s 6-1 victory. The Giants swept the Dodgers 8-5, aided by Ival Goodman’s first-inning homer and four runs in the frame. The Pirates were held to six safeties as Derringer beat them 3-2 in Chicago. Philadelphia and Boston split their twin bill with Manny Salvo pitching the opener for Boston and a 7-2 win in the nightcap.
