Ben Chapman breaks up Earl Whitehill’s no-hitter in the bottom of the ninth inning at Yankee Stadium. Last season, the Bronx Bomber left fielder, after being provoked, hit the right-hander with a punch in the passageway, causing a melee between the two teams that resulted in a 20-minute delay of the game before the police could restore order.

At St. Louis, Ray Pepper has five hits, including 2 homers, and drives in five runs to lead the Browns to a 12 – 7 win over Detroit. Pepper will knock in 101 runs this year, but his career total will be just 170 RBIs; he is the only player in history to have a 100-RBI season without reaching 200 for his career. Four other homers are hit today — two by Detroit — but George Blaeholder goes the distance for the win.

Boston’s Lefty Grove allows 5 early runs‚ then settles down to beat the Indians‚ 7 – 5. Down 5 – 4 in the 9th‚ Grove hits for himself and singles. Grove will lose his next four.

The Indians stop the Yankees, 5 – 1, with Lou Gehrig driving in the lone run for New York. For the second time in his career, Lou has driven in at least one run a game for 10 straight games.

The Giants beat the Cardinals, 5 – 2, but do it without starting pitcher Freddie Fitzsimmons, who is struck in the back by a fungo bat while warming up. Fat Freddie will miss several starts.

The Reds send pitcher Syl Johnson and OF Johnny Moore to the Phils for pitcher Ted Kleinhans and OFs Art Ruble and Wes Schulmerich. Moore will turn out to be the class of the swap, hitting .300+ in the next three years.

The Buffalo Bisons hit five home runs in one inning against the Albany Senators. A rookie, Jake Plummer, is beaned by the Albany pitcher after the 5th home run in a row, and a promising career is ruined.

Ben Chapman, who will lead the protest against Jackie Robinson in 1947, harasses a Jewish fan during a Yankees’ 13-3 victory of the White Sox at the Bronx ballpark. The New York left fielder shouts disparaging epithets and taunts the team’s supporter with Nazi salutes.
