Liberty League:
Indianapolis (3) at Cleveland (5) Game 1: Lou Townley (27-3.5) (4-7) over Sal DeVaux (34-3.5) (2-9). Townley allowed 9 hits, 4 walks and struck out 4. For the Hoosiers, manager/1B Pete Bucolo (41-4.1) had 4 hits, stole a base and had an RBI.

Indianapolis (6) at Cleveland (3) in 10 innings Game 2: Billy Simonsen (24-8.0) (6-2) over Deacon Dubin (32-8.8) (0-1) in relief of Artie Boucher (26-6.1). Down 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th, the Spiders had to pinch-hit for Boucher. They scored twice to tie the game, but after 4 games in 2 days, they found themselves short of fresh pitchers and sent C Dubin into the game with unfortunate results. He only allowed 1 hit, but it was a 3-run home run to 3B Bill Lawson (32-6.9)/ For the Spiders, LF Ace Trimmell (31-5.0) had 4 hits and a walk, scored a run and had an RBI.

No games were schedule for today; the above games were of the makeup variety.

Grand National Association:
Milwaukee (10) at Buffalo (11): Will Vertner (25-6.9) (9-1) over Dave Ward (26-6.1) (7-6). Rookie CF Lefty Lay (23-5.4), the only legitimately talented hitter the Bisons have, had 3 hits with a double, stole 2 bases, scored 4 runs and had 2 RBIs.

Chicago at Brooklyn, Omaha at Washington and St. Louis at Providence were all rained out.

Editor's Note: Today was the day of the Johnstown Flood. Over 2200 people were killed in Pennsylvania when a dam gave way due to nearly 10 inches of rain falling in 24 hours.
