Wednesday, August 8, 1877, at Washington Olympics (13-25 6th place in the Liberty League)

John Bendickson, Troy (25 R 10-8 2.37) vs. Rufus Lee, Wash. (26 R 5-10 3.08)

Won - 5 to 3

Okay, Rufus Lee is the greatest pitcher in the world, I guess. We did not beat him today, his teammates gave us the game with their generous errors. We only had 4 hits: 2 by Sol Popko, 1 by me and 1 by backup C Jerry Bern. Everybody else in the lineup has gone cold as ice of late.

John Bendickson held them to only 1 run until the 7th inning when we already had the game in hand at 5 to 1.

SS Bill Rush did not handle a chance in the entire game.

Other Games:
Philadelphia (6) at Pittsburgh (5) in 10 innings - Charlie Moss (19-21) over Bones Lane (17-19). 2B Jim Ware had 3 hits and 2 RBIs. CF Hi Tucker had 3 hits with 2 triples, had an RBI and scored 3 runs, including the game winner in the 10th.

Boston (2) at St. Louis (12) - Socks Hawkins (12-6) over Charlie Morlock (13-19). 2B Bub Crawford had 3 hits, a walk, scored a run and had an RBI. Rookie 3B Rube Ford had 3 hits, scored twice and had an RBI. CF Washington Macho had 3 hits with a double, stole a base, scored twice and had 2 RBIs.
