Game 100: Cleveland Naps vs. Boston Americans

Cleveland's Jimmy Sheckard was dialed in at the plate today, leading the Naps (49-51) to an impressive 9 to 5 victory over the Boston Americans (56-44). The loss drops Boston back into second place in the American League race; 1 game behind the Washington Senators (57-43).

While Watty Lee (13-11) did not have his best stuff today, he did enough to pick up the win. On the day, Lee allowed 5 earned runs on 9 hits and 3 hit batsmen; Game Score 50. Jesse Tannehill (10-14) was tagged with the loss after he permitted 8 runs (5 earned) on 11 hits, 3 walks, and 1 wild pitch in his 7 2/3 innings of work; Game Score 29. Gus Thompson covered the final 1 1/3 innings of play in which he allowed 1 unearned run.

Cleveland's offense was powered by Jimmy Sheckard (3 for 4, Homerun, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs), Doc Gessler (2 for 3, 2 Runs, 2 RBIs, 2 Walks), and Harry Lumley (2 for 4, Run, RBI, Stolen Base). The Americans received contributions from Danny Shay (2 for 4, Run, Hit by Pitch), Dave Brain (1 for 4, Homerun, Run, 3 RBIs), and Homer Smoot (1 for 1, Double, Run).
