For the second consecutive day, a Brownsâ hurler throws a no-hitter when Bob Groom keeps the White Sox hitless in the teamâs 3-0 victory in the nightcap. The 32 year-old right-hander also pitched two hitless innings in the first game of the twin bill, earning a save in the Sportsmanâs Park contest.
Red Sox outfielder and future Hall of Famer Harry Hooper becomes the first major leaguer to start both games of a doubleheader with a home run. The feat will not be repeated until 1993, when Aâs leadoff hitter Rickey Henderson opens each game of a twin bill against Cleveland with a homer.
