Travelers Shutout Birmingham 6-0 for Ten Wins
After 47 tries the Little Rock Travelers finally shut out an opponent, beating Birmingham 6-0 as Verne Williamson allowed four hits. Little Rock’s team ERA rose to .220 with a workmanlike 12 hits, and the series win boosted hopes for the season. Pat Haggerty, the Southern League’s leading batter, was held to one plate appearance. An 18-year-old prospect who signed with the Boston Braves wrecked $102,000 of Chicago White Sox property. Michigan was separated from Indiana Territory in 1805.
