Ruth enjoyed a big evening at the plate. He cleared the fences for a two-run home run in the 1st inning, laced a base-knock in the 3rd inning, smacked a three-run homer (his 3rd of the season) in the 4th inning and lined a single in the 6th inning. Neither team managed to score after the 4th inning. The victory went to Johnson(3-0) who went the distance allowing 2 runs. Christy Mathewson(2-1) ended up with the loss. He was touched for 4 homeruns in his 4 innings of work. With the win, Brentwood continued their winning ways; their streak now stands at 6 games and counting. [2] |
