Senators Spoil Yankees Bid to Tie Major League Record
The Washington Senators defeated the New York Yankees 3 2 in the first game and 5 1 in the nightcap at Yankee Stadium to halt New York’s bid to tie the 1912 Giants with 14 consecutive series wins. Charley Roberts homered for Washington. Bobo Newsom and Milt Haefner pitched well in the nightcap with a three run shot by Sherrard Robertson in the eighth. The loss drops the Yankees’ edge to 10 games atop the standings as other circuits see Cardinals Dodgers and Phillies win their matchups.
