Philadelphia Quakers (45-26 .634 7 GB in 2nd place in the Grand National Association) at
Omaha Mutuals (52-19 .732 1st place)

The Chicago Colts fired manager Sammy Farrell (39-6.9) yesterday and gave the job to LF Candy Simpson (25-6.8).

Jim Postema, Phil. (35-5.5) (R 3-2 4.28 9.7-1.1-7.0 H-BB-K/9) vs. Lee Sprague, Omaha (24-3.5) (R 26-11 1.76 6.8-0.8-6.1)

Lost - 10 to 5

Sprague had the worst game he has ever had as a Mutual. He only went 7 innings, allowed 8 runs, 12 hits, walked 4 (!!) and struck out 1.

We had 10 hits and made 3 errors. The Quakers made 1 error.

LF Dave Cunningham (29-5.4) hit 2 doubles and scored 2 runs. C Charlie LeFevre (30-5.0) hit 2 triples and scored 2 runs. 1B Charlie Toner (23-8.7) extended his hitting streak to 13 games with 3 hits, including a double, scored a run and had 4 RBIs.

For the Quakers, RF Joseph Thomson (32-7.3) had 3 hits, a walk and scored 4 runs. LF Jim Hudson (30-6.2) had 2 hits and became the 2nd opposing player to hit a ball over the fences in our ball park. He had 2 RBIs.

Should I make Tom Lee (26-6.0) the #1 pitcher?

He was pinch-hit for in the top of the 9th, because the Haymakers were losing 3 to 2 (Although Lamb has the highest batting average on the team and already had 2 hits in the game).
