===== News =====

•	Clever base running in the sixth inning by [[Dave Fultz]] forced a [[Guardians|Cleveland]] fielding 
mistake that allowed him to score the eventual winning run in a 4-3 win for the Athletics at Columbia Park

•	Fultz was on third and enticed a throw over from pitcher Bill Hart, but third baseman Bill Bradley wasn't paying attention and the ball zipped by him into foul territory all the way to the fence

•	The Hughie Jennings saga came to a head when Jennings appeared on the field in Baltimore and took infield practice with the [[Yankees|Orioles]] prior to a game with the [[Orioles|Brewers]]

•	Johnson sent a telegram instructing Brewers president Matt Killilea and umpire Jack Sheridan not to play the game if Jennings was on the field

•	Jennings said that Johnson had lied to him by telling him McGraw didn't want him
