Washington Senators starter George Johnson was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Philadelphia Athletics, 4-1. The Athletics fall to 7-15 and continue their sub-.500 start to the 1915 season.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Everett Scott, the 22-year old shortstop ? Scott stroked a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put Washington up, 3-0. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Washington manager Zachery Marchese.
