Chicago White Sox P Ed Walsh hurls two complete game victories over Boston
Chicago White Sox P Ed Walsh hurls two complete game victories over Boston, winning by scores of 10 – 5 and 3 – 1. When Doc White leaves the first game without retiring a batter in the 1st inning, Walsh comes in without warming up. He gives up five runs in the 1st, then blanks Boston the rest of the way.
At Philadelphia, A’s starter Andy Coakley pitches seven innings and is behind 4 – 2 against the Tigers when he departs. The A’s knot the score up with runs in the 7th and 8th, and reliever Jimmy Dygert tosses the last three innings. When the Tigers score two in the 10th to win, the official scorer pins the loss on Coakley for pitching badly (later revisions will give the loss to Dygert, and Coakley’s record of 20-7 will be the American League’s best winning percentage).
