At Chicago’s Comiskey Park, 33 year-old Joe Jackson’s sixth inning double off Tiger hurler Hooks Dauss breaks a scoreless tie, putting the White Sox ahead, 2-0. ‘Shoeless’ Joe’s game-winning hit will be his last of his 13-year career when the players on the grand jury list are indefinitely suspended for the rest of the season as the probe of the 1919 World Series fix is investigated.

The Indians continue on their war path by topping the Browns, 8 – 4. Duster Mails wins his 6th straight and Tris Speaker breaks out of a slump by collecting two hits. He had been 1 for 19. Charlie Jamieson adds four hits.

Carl Mays and the Yankees beat the A’s, 3 – 0, as Mays allows just four hits. It is his 3rd straight shutout over Philadelphia and his 10th straight win against them. Babe Ruth drives in all the runs on a pair of homers over the RF fence off Eddie Rommel, his 52nd and 53rd homers of the campaign. He hits two other liners to left and center that are close to the wall.

At the Polo Grounds, the Braves eliminate the 2nd-place Giants in game two by a 3 – 2 score on Tony Boeckel’s homer in the 9th. The Giants win the opener, 2 – 1. The loss clinches the pennant for Brooklyn.
