Appearing as pinch hitters, Cleveland’s Billy Sullivan and Bruce Campbell both homer, marking the first time that two batters on the same team have hit pinch round-trippers in an American League game. The off-the-bench home run heroics prove to be the difference when the Indians beat Philadelphia at Shibe Park, 8-6.

Before a 6 – 2 loss to the Reds in Cincinnati, the Dodgers announce that Van Lingle Mungo has been fined, suspended for three days, and given a bill for $1,500 worth of damage done to a St. Louis hotel room following a ruckus last week with teammates trying to get him to bed at four A.M. When a photographer asks to take a picture of Mungo’s black eye, the pitcher replies, “You can take it for $1,000, because that’s what it cost me to get it.”

The Athletics regain the American League lead by beating the White Sox, 10 – 9 in 11 innings. In the inning, however, they need two singles, a runner safe on an error, and three walks to win the game as Chicago C Luke Sewell picks one runner off at second base and throws another out at third base on a steal attempt.
