Louisville Bourbons (18-10 .654 0 GB in 2nd place in the Liberty League) at
Detroit Wolverines (15-7 .682 in 1st place)

William McLeod, Lou. (30-5.6) (R 5-3 2.74 7.8-3.9-3.9 H/9-BB/9-SO/9) vs. Jiggs Niedermeyer, Det. (25-5.8) (R 6-1 3.60 10.0-2.1-3.2)

We were 5-1 against our old ace last season, but he, too, pitched pretty well against us.

I am switching Sam Boullion and Ed Aldrich. Aldrich has a little more range, but Boullion is more smooth and steady. He will be at 2nd now and Aldrich will move to 3rd. Of course, now that I said that about Boullion, he will make 3 errors today.

LINEUPS (* = LHB # = SHB)
LOU - 1: 3B Ren Morgan (25-4.0) 2: 1B Pete Hinde (33-7.9) 3: CF Tom Panozzo* (24-2.0) 4: RF Steve Giles* (23-4.2) 5: LF Pete Armstrong* (22-4.6) 6: C Wilson Terlizzi (26-5.6) 7: SS Ed Riley* (25-4.1) 8: 2B Tom Walker (26-3.8)

DET - 1: 3B Ed Aldrich (25-6.8) 2: 2B Sam Boullion (29-4.8) 3: 1B Sam Cowan (33-5.1) 4: RF Ben Smith* (29-6.7) 5: LF Al Lewis* (23-9.1) 6: SS Pat Dunbar (27-8.3) 7: CF Sam King (23-6.0) 8: C Jimmy Babcock (32-6.9)

As predicted, the 1st batter hit a slow roller to Boullion at 2nd, who scooped it up and threw the ball into the stands. The next batter singled to right, but Ben Smith threw Morgan out at the plate to undo most of the harm of the error, though Hinde went to 2nd on the throw.

In the 2nd, the 2nd ball that was hit to Boullion at 2nd eluded his grasp for his 2nd error. Unbelievable how canny a prognosticator I am! The next batter doubled and once again the runner that reached on the error was thrown out at the plate, this time by Al Lewis and relay man Pat Dunbar.

We busted out and scored 8 runs in the 2nd!

Won - 18 to 1

Niedermeyer allowed 8 hits, 2 walks and struck out no one. At bat, he had 2 hits and a walk, scored 2 runs and had an RBI.

McLeod gave us 18 hits, 5 walks and struck out 2. 17 of the 18 runs were earned.

Each team made 5 errors.

Everyone in the lineup had a hit and scored a run! Ed Aldrich had a hit and a walk, scored 2 runs and had 2 RBIs. Sam Boullion made up for the 2 errors with 3 hits with a double and a triple, scored 2 runs and had 4 RBIs. Ben Smith had a hit and 3 walks, stole a base, scored 4 runs and had an RBI. Al Lewis had the best day of anyone with 4 hits, 3 of them doubles, stole a base, scored 3 runs and had 5 RBIs. Pat Dunbar had 3 hits with a double, scored a run and had 3 RBIs. Sam King got his 1st major league hit and scored twice. Jimmy Babcock had 2 hits with a double, scored a run and had an RBI.

Liberty League:
Cincinnati (7) at Cleveland (3): Charlie Branham (29-4.2) (8-2) over Tom McDowell (25-8.0) (4-4). Branham allowed 8 hits, 2 walks and struck out 3. For the Spiders, SS Zachary Pfeiffer (21-4.5) pulled a muscle and is going to miss about 3 weeks.

Indianapolis (8) at Pittsburgh (9) in 10 innings: Tom Lilly (29-6.4) (6-3) over Al Conradt (25-4.1) (2-7). RF Billy Galloway (27-5.3) knocked in a run in the bottom of the 9th to tie the game and rookie 2B Fred Russell (24-5.4) led off the bottom of the 10th with a walk and scored the winning run on a passed ball. Tom Lilly gave up 18 hits as a pitcher, but had 3 as a hitter, scoring a run and knocking in 3. For the Hoosiers, SS Kid Stevens (27-8.4) had 4 hits with a double and a triple, scored a run and had an RBI.

Kansas City (7) at Boston (5): Piggy Lambert (25-8.2) (3-6) over Dave Wolf (26-4.7) (3-5). 3B Lou Kelsey (24-5.2) had 3 hits with a double and 3 RBIs.

Grand National Association:
Brooklyn (2) at Washington (7): Ed Bush (29-5.3) (6-8) over Al Green (26-3.8) (7-5). Bush allowed 8 hits, 5 walks and struck out 5.

Only game scheduled.

Down in Syracuse, newly acquired P Joe Hoyt (23-5.3) got injured in his 1st start with the team, straining something in his shoulder and will have to sit for a month or so.
