Omaha Mutuals (45-16 .738 1st place)

Charlie Moss, Minn. (43-6.3) (R 6-17 4.31 12.1-0.6-0.9 H-BB-K/9) vs. Tom Lee, Omaha (26-6.0) (R 17-4 2.06 6.7-1.3-6.3)

Won - 3 to 2 in 10 innings

What is it with us and Charlie Moss? The old man ain't got nothing no more, but we've only scored 3 runs in each of the two times we've faced him. And had to go to extra-innings to do it this time.

We dern near lost to him this go 'round. He shut us out for the first 5 innings and then we were down, 2 to 1, going into the bottom of the 9th. 1B Charlie Toner (23-8.7) saved the day be leading off with a mammoth blast over the centerfield fence.

In the bottom of the 10th, SS Ed Page (28-7.4) led off with a single, went to 2nd on a passed ball and scored when their catcher fielded a nubber in front of the plate and threw it over the first baseman's head.

Lee allowed 4 hits, walked 2 and struck out 7. He also hit a double and could have ended the game in the bottom of the 9th, but got thrown out a the plate. This was his 10th win in a row and our 10th extra-inning win in a row.

Moss allowed us 9 hits, 1 walk and struck out 1 (Lee).

SS Ed Page had 2 hits and scored a run. LF Dave Cunningham (29-5.4) hit a triple and scored a run. 1B Charlie Toner had a single besides the home run. CF Abe Cupp (23-4.7) hit a double and a triple, but got nothing to show for it.

Grand National Association Games:
Baltimore (4) at Pittsburgh (6): Tom Lilly (24-6.4) (18-6) over Sammy O'Quinn (22-5.9) (4-8) in relief of Pop Yurkovich (32-5.6). Lilly allowed 7 hits, 4 walks and struck out 3. Yurkovich was having a game to remember until his shoulder started hurting him in the 6th inning. He went 5.1 innings, allowed 1 hit, 1 walk and struck out 6. His shoulder has swollen up and they expect him to miss 6 or 7 weeks. C Cliff Robinson (26-6.1) had 2 hits, stole a base and had an RBI. For the Orioles, 2B Billy Moore (28-7.0) hit a double and a triple, scored a run and had 2 RBIs.

Chicago (2) at Providence (3): Frank McSherry (29-4.1) (12-9) over John Ritch (29-7.8) (16-19). McSherry allowed 8 hits, 3 walks and struck out 7. Ritch allowed 8 hits, 1 walk and struck out 3. He pitched fairly well, but nevertheless lost his 4th in a row and 6th of his last 7. 2B Pat Millis (24-7.2) had 3 hits, stole a base, scored a run and had an RBI.
