For reasons unknow, the Chicago White Sox elected to send pitcher Brickyard Kennedy back to the mound to start the game for the second consecutive day. Needless to say, it did not go well for Chicago, as the Boston Americans (86-41) seized upon the gaffe and thumped the Chicago White Sox (48-79) by a 7 to 0 score.

Boston pitcher Jesse Tannehill (21-11) picked up the win as he limited the opposition to 3 hits and 2 hit batsman during the 78 pitch shutout; Game Score of 82. Brickyard Kennedy did not fare well in this odd situation, allowing 7 earned runs on 11 hits and 2 walks in 7 1/3 innings of play; Game Score of 27. Reliever Sadie McMahon covered the final 1 2/3 innings, giving up just 1 hit and 1 walk. The Americans were led at the plate by Dave Brain (2 for 4, Double, 1 Run), Fred Clarke (2 for 3, 1 Run, 1 RBI, 1 Walk), John Farrell (2 for 4, 1 Run, 2 RBIs, 1 Stolen Base), and Chick Stahl (2 for 5, 1 Run, 1 RBI, 1 Stolen Base).

Player of the Game: Jesse Tannehill (Season: #18 / Career: #39)

***I have no idea why the game sent Kennedy to the mound 2 days in a row. The team had rested starters and cannot see any injuries.***
