-===== News =====
-•	In front of a record Columbia Park crowd of 18,765, the Athletics beat [[White Sox|Chicago]], 2-1
-•	[[Rube Waddell]] struck out 11 in the contest and was at the center of a wild rhubarb at the end
-•	Waddell, covering first on Tom Daly's ground ball to [[Harry Davis]], took the throw to get the force out and end the game
-•	Sox players argued that Waddell had dropped the ball before making the out and Frank Isbell pushed the umpire Jack Sheridan to emphasize the point, whereupon a number of spectators jumped the wall and entered the fracas
-•	Eventually matters calmed down but not until after fans began to hurl seat cushions around the park to celebrate the fact that the call remained unchanged
