• The Senators rapped out 19 hits and beat the Athletics 11-5

• Wiley Piatt was on the mound for the A's and was ineffective throughout

• Testimony resumed in the Phillies' request for an injunction against Nap Lajoie, Chick Fraser, and Bill Bernhard

• Lajoie's lawyer emphasized the unfair nature of National League contracts, particularly the clause that allowed a team to dismiss a player after ten days notice, while not allowing the player similar severance options

• The Phillies rebutted by saying the clause was necessary to dissuade a player from dogging it after having signed a fat contract

• Both sides rested their case at the end of the day's arguments
