Tuesday, September 19, 1876 at Boston Red Caps (27-42 8th place in the Liberty League)

1B Sol Popko has a remote chance at the Batting Title. He is currently second in the race at .336. Washington C Al Cannon leads at .350. 4 or 5 hits and an O'fer by Cannon would do the trick.

Popko will bat lead-off today and I'll take clean-up duties to give him a chance at more hits.
Dave Turkaly says he can play, so we sent Lev Box back to Syracuse to try to help them salvage their pennant hopes.

Charlie Morlock is 4-2 with a 1.15 ERA against Troy. Sol Popko has only hit .259 against him on the year.

Abe Everette, Troy (27 L 21-13 1.64) vs. Charlie Morlock, Bos. (27 R 20-29 2.6)

Lost - 6 to 3

Sol Popko had 2 hits. He finishes at .338. He needs Cannon to go 0 for 9 to win the batting title.....

RF Dan Sloan hit a 2-run homer for Boston. Abe Everette has had a fine season, but has shown an alarming tendency to give up some very long belts.

Other Games:
St. Louis (6) at Pittsburgh (3) - Socks Hawkins (11-7) over Bones Lane (23-26). CF Dwight Crawford had 2 hits with a triple and 2 RBIs. 3B Kid Angell had 3 hits and an RBI.

Chicago (8) at Washington (2) - Will Taylor (25-26) over Cal Wright (24-23). LF Ike Noel, SS Dan Mitchell and 3B Jim Pierce each had 3 hits. C Al Cannon went 1 for 4 and wins the Batting Title.

New York (3) at Philadelphia (8) - Pop Yurkovich (25-25) over Charlie Moss (31-35). 1B Joe Smith had 4 hits and scored 3 runs.

Down in the International Association, Syracuse lost to Rochester, 2 to 1, and Providence beat Egyptian Hooker and the Guelph Maple Leafs. Providence is now up 1 game with 1 to go. Providence has now won 7 in a row, while Syracuse has dropped 4 straight.

Update:
Friday, September 22, 1876

Providence lost to Manchester, 19 to 11, but Syracuse also lost to Egyptian Hooker and those derned Guelph Maple Leafs, so Providence is the Champion of the International Association.
