The Yankees take two from the Browns to nail down the American League flag, winning the opener, 10 – 2, behind Herb Pennock. Babe Ruth’s grand slam is the big blow. In the nitecap, Lou Gehrig homers in the 3rd inning, off Milt Gaston, while Ruth matches him with a two-run home run in the 6th off Win Ballou. Ruth adds a solo shot in the 9th, his 46th, off Joe Giard to seal Waite Hoyt’s 10 – 4 victory. Despite the score, the game is played in a new AL record 55 minutes.
