Bot 8th: Frankie Frisch robbed George Grantham of a base hit. Christy Mathewson tossed a complete game at Shibe Park as the Bat Cracking Bombers beat the Limerick Hurlers by the count of 11 to 5. Frankie Frisch provided much of the offense. He lofted a three-run 'big-fly' (his 7th of the season) in the 4th inning and slapped a one-base hit which scored a run in the 9th inning. The Bat Cracking offense man-handled the Limerick pitching staff as they scored in 7 of the 9 innings. The victory went to Mathewson(11-5) who went the distance allowing 5 runs. Billy Pierce(2-3) was charged with the loss. He was hit hard and gave up 6 hits and 4 walks in 3 and 1/3 innings. |
