Athletics starter Bill Bernhard absorbed all the damage, giving up 22 hits, in a 16-0 loss at the hands of Boston at Columbia Park.

Business manager Billy Sharsig attended the game, but left early due to a “heat attack.” He had left a game several days ago for the same reason.

Third baseman Lave Cross had suffered what was described as a “severely strained ankle” on the 27th against Cleveland but had played through it until now. Cross left today's game in the seventh because of the ankle problem and was replaced by Bob McKinney.
