Leon Cardore Whitewashes Boston; Robins Back in First
Rest indeed does a body good! Brooklyn romps to a third consecutive victory and reclaims first place. The Robins score early, often and late en route to a 10-0 whitewashing of the Braves. Leon Cadore yields twelve hits but no runs and no walks through nine innings full. He improves to an even 12-12 with a 2.57 ERA. Rabbit Maranville accounts for three Boston hits. Hi Myers, arguably in the midst of his best season, leads the charge with a single, double and triple with three runs scored and five runs batted in. Last year's RBI champ again leads the team with 67 runs batted in. Jimmy Johnston and Tommy Griffith each slash three hits apiece. Ed Konetchy and Otto Miller drive in two runs each. The Reds fall to the Cardinals and into second place, while the Giants edge out the Phillies at the Polo Grounds by a score of one to zero.
- RECORD: 72-55 (.567)
- 1st Place; 0.5 GA
