Victors in a Pitchers' Game Between Boston and Pittsburg
Boston and Pittsburg failed to bat effectively in a pitchers duel on June 12. Bases on balls produced most scoring as Pittsburg drove in one run and Boston one, both by players who reached first on the pitcher’s errors. Hamilton and Long made stellar catches. Sullivan homered for Boston, and Hamilton stole second before Lowe’s sacrifice and other miscues shaped the scoring. Time 1.40, umpire Emslie.
