The Athletics and the Senators split a double header at Columbia Park. Socks Seybold had the key hit, a two-run sixth-inning homer, as the A's took the morning contest, 4-1. Washington's Pop Foster returned the favor with a three-run blast in the first inning of the afternoon game and the Senators took it, 7-4.
Business manager Billy Sharsig had left a couple of games in previous days due to what was thought to be heat-related illness and, according to the Times, he was “still a sick man.”
