Pittsburgh Puddlers (4-5 .444 2 GB tied for 4th place in the Liberty League) at
Detroit Wolverines (6-3 .625 1st place)

Joe Peters, Pitt. (32-4.9) (L 0-1 2.70 8.1-4.5-6.3 H/9-BB/9-SO/9) vs. Jiggs Niedermeyer, Det. (24-5.8) (R 1-0 3.60 6.3-1.8-1.8)

Lost - 3 to 0

Niedermeyer pulled a muscle and only went 4 innings. He should be fine in a week.

In 4 innings, Niedermeyer allowed 2 runs, 4 hits, 1 walk and struck out 1.
Al Rice (23-7.6) pitched the final 5 innings, allowed an unearned run, 4 hits, no walks and struck out 3.

Peters gave us 2 hits, 2 walks and struck out 7. And Boston just released this guy.

Each team made 2 errors.

CF Fred Negus (24-6.7) had both of our hits.

For the Puddlers, our old catcher Evan Eckberg (32-3.5) had 2 hits with a double and threw out the only fella that tried to steal. Rookie 1B Lou Green (23-5.9) hit 2 doubles and a triple, stole a base, scored a run and had an RBI.
