The Giants suspend team captain Buck Herzog for refusing to accompany the team on its western trip. Herzog will be traded after the season.

For the second time this month, a pitcher beats Brooklyn twice in one day, as the Cardinals’ Bill Doak wins, 2 – 0 and 12 – 4. With his 14th and 15th victories, Doak picked up a bonus check as well. In a salary dispute in the spring, the Cards and Doak agreed upon a bonus if the pitcher reached 15 wins, and another bonus if he won twenty. He’ll win just one more.
