Saturday August 5 at New York Mutuals (29-23 tied for 2nd place in the Liberty League)

John Kyle has started once against us before and shut us out.....

Abe Lowe, Troy (27 R 18-20 2.26) vs. John Kyle, N. Y. (26 R 6-9 1.50)

Lost: 6 to 2

We reached the heights today with 7 hits! 1st 4 batters in our lineup were 0 for 16. cf Joe Wells had 2 hits and a double, but no runs or RBIs. c Bob Adams had 2 singles and drove in a run. ss Emil Moore had a hit and no errors. We've scored 5 total runs in the last 3 games. rf Porter Thorpe has all of a sudden gone cold. Since having 3 hits in his 1sr game back from injury, he is 3 for 21 (.143). 2b Dan Owens has had 3 hitless games in a row. lf Len Cardillo, who was hotter than hell a week ago, is 1 for his last 12. Abe Lowe is the best hitter on the team right now, going 6 for his last 16, though I'd rather have him pitching better.

Other doin's:
Detroit (5) at Boston (4): John Walker (14-11) over Joe Phelps (4-4). Phelps held Detroit to 6 hits in defeat. 3b Bub Nelson went hitless for the Wolverines, ending his streak at 20 games.

Washington (3) at Philadelphia (6): Paul Skinner (23-14) over Pete Tyson (16-20). cf Jim Kruppa had 4 hits for Philly, including a double. He knocked in 2 and scored twice. 3b Pat Lee had a single for Washington to extend his streak to 21 games, tying the all-time mark of Kruppa set earlier in the season.

St. Louis (4) at Baltimore (6): Miller Bullock (12-18) over Al Byrne (8-4). As usual when Baltimore wins, 1b Tony Chamberlin had a good game. He had 3 hits and 4 RBIs.

Down in Rochester, Madison Coy pitched a 5-hitter against the Manchester Reds to raise his record to 22-12. Another bad outing by Melvin and Coy will get to Troy. Hate to send the league leader in shutouts to the minors, though.....but geeze, 6 walks?
