Boston Gets 8-5 Win
Johnny Wuffli had a big hand in Boston's 8-5 triumph over Philadelphia. He rattled off 3 hits in 4 at-bats, scoring 1 times and knocking in 2 runs. Boston raised its record to 23-19 with the win.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Rube Oldring? The Boston shortstop had a 2-run single in the top of the second inning to put the Red Sox on top, 2-1. For the game, Oldring had 1 double and 2 singles in 6 at-bats.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Wuffli said.
