Senators Net 3-1 Win Over Tigers
In a low-scoring tilt between the Washington Senators and the Detroit Tigers, Al Bonner was the difference-maker. The Washington right-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. With the victory, the Senators upped their record to 60-55.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Senators had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the top of the fourth, when first baseman Fred Merkle hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Joe Engel and made the score 2-0, Senators. Merkle was 1 for 4.

"Glad to go home with a win," said Bonner.
