Abe Lowe, Troy (27 R 1-1 0.95) vs. Paul Skinner, Phi1. (25 L 1-1 3.18 He was 20-25 with a 2.21 ERA last year in the NA)
The Centennials set the all-time record (so far) with only 1 error in the game and when a team does that they are going to win. So, we
Lost: 8 to 2
Third baseman Joe Carter and left fielder Dave Bigelow each had 3 hits for Philadelphia. Carter scored 3 times. Our left fielder Dick Carver twinged his back making an awesome diving catch and had to come out of the game. He'll be hurting for 5 days or so.
Other doin's:
Detroit (4) at Baltimore (2): Oldster George McCormick (1-2) got his first win and youngster Steve Sedam (2-1) took his first loss. Detroit center fielder Henry Theroux had as many hits himself as the whole Baltimore team had (3) including a triple. His close friends call him David.
New York (8) at Boston (4): Harry Mays (2-1) over Monk Cunningham (1-2). Second baseman Tom McDonald had 3 hits for New York.
St. Louis (4) at Washington (6): Pete Tyson (2-1) beat Dave Dixon (1-2). Right fielder Levi Marsala had 4 hits in a losing cause. Bob Rene was back at shortstop for St. Louis and made 3 more errors. He now has 10 all told in the first 3 games.
Rochester beat Pittsburgh in the International Association to improve to 3-0 on the season and now sits all alone in first place.
