American League

White Sox-5 Browns-1
Browns starter Rube Waddell(3-1) was no match for Chicago's bats today,as they pounded him for 12 knocks and 5 earned runs in the White Sox 5-1 win.Chicago starter Ed Walsh(1-2) on the other hand was tremendous on the hill,allowing just 6 hits and 1 earned run for his first victory of the season.

National League

Cardinals-3 Reds-0
Clinging to a 1-0 lead after seven,the Cardinals got some late breathing room thanks to an 8th inning Joe Delahanty RBI ground out and a 9th inning RBI sac fly by Bobby Byrne to all but sew up the 3-0 Redbirds victory.Starting pitcher Art Fromme(2-0) allowed just 4 hits and 2 walks in the shutout victory.

Cubs-5 Pirates-4
Trailing 4-2 entering the bottom of the 9th,the Cubs came roaring back thanks to a Frank Chance 2 run double in the bottom of the 9th followed in the 10th with a Johnny Evers game winning RBI single that gave Chicago a rousing 5-4 victory.Cubs starter Chick Fraser(1-0) pitched 10 solid innings for the win while Deacon Phillippe(0-1) took the loss.
