The Phillies hand the Pirates a 1 – 0 loss, for Pittsburgh’s only shutout of the year in 139 games. This is a 20th century National League record that will hold up; the 1894 Bostonand Philadelphia teams went through the 132-game season without being shut out in the highest-scoring season ever.

Chicago 1B Jack Doyle, harassed by a Polo Grounds fan, jumps into the stands and hits him once with his left hand, reinjuring the hand which he had broken several weeks before. The Giants’ Dummy Taylor trims Chicago’s Jack Taylor, 6 – 4.
