Cleveland edged Boston 5 4 in 11 innings to cap a dramatic opening day at Fenway Park. Buddy Bell belted a two run homer in the ninth and a fast rally in the 11th, while Butch Hobson nearly tied it with a two run shot that Jim Norris gloved at the wall. The crowd of 34,790 braved chill 43 degree weather as the Indians staged a comeback from 3 0 and 4 2 deficits. Norris described the game turning moment and the long day ended after 3 hours and 20 minutes. Campbell pitched for Boston despite a 50 cent ticket hike and a warning banner calling for his sale.
