At the start of the Giants match in Pittsburgh, John McGraw hands Bill Klem the lineup card with Roger Bresnahan’s name in the lineup. The two argue about whether the catcher can play after yesterday’s ejection and then, when Klem turns away, he is hit in the face with a glass of water. No culprit comes forward but Klem gets his revenge in the 6th by ejecting McGraw and Art Devlin for arguing a call. The Pirates win, 2 – 1.
