It was 103 degrees and miserably humid in Washington and with the Senators and Athletics tied 13-13 after nine innings, umpire Jack Sheridan said that was enough baseball and called it a tie.
A's starter Eddie Plank left the game in the second inning after a violent collision at the plate with Washington catcher Boileryard Clarke.
Manager Connie Mack tried out a local amateur shortstop, Charles White, before the game but White's fielding was “ragged” and Mack chose not to play him.
The team signed Augusta outfielder Matty McIntyre.
