The Detroit Tigers beat the Philadelphia Athletics, 5-4. Detroit pitcher and Sylvania, Ohio, native Ralph Comstock led the way. Hank Gehring earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. His record is now 4-0. Philadelphia has now lost 7 straight.

With the game on the line, Polly McLarry came to bat in the bottom of the ninth. And the Detroit first baseman came through, cracking a 2-run single off Carl Weilman, the Philadelphia pitcher.

"Enjoyed this one," Comstock told the Detroit Herald. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
