• Boston beat the Athletics, 8-6 in ten innings, at Columbia Park
• Boston tied the game in the ninth on Buck Freeman's two run homer and scored two more in the tenth on Charlie Hemphill's RBI single and Lou Criger's sac fly
• Billy Milligan went all the way for the A's, despite tiring badly after the sixth inning
• He gave up 15 hits and walked five with no strikeouts
• Jack Hayden had three hits and two outfield assists for the A's and would have had a third assist, but his cannon shot from near the fence in right field was dropped at the plate by Doc Powers
• Shortstop Harry Lochhead made his A's debut but not a single ground ball went near him the entire game
