-• Down a run in the ninth, the [[Twins|Senators]]' Pop Foster tied it with an inside-the-park home run, then later in the inning, Bill Coughlin hit an outside-the-park single with two men on to give his team an 8-7 walkoff win over the Athletics in Washington +
- +
-• It wouldn't be until 1920 that major league baseball score a hit like Coughlin's as a home run +
- +
-• The A's commmitted seven errors +
- +
-• It was the team's fifth loss in a row and the eighth in their last nine games +
- +
-• Still trying to find the answer at shortstop, manager [[Connie Mack]] played both [[Dave Fultz]] and [[Phil Geier]] at the position but neither looked very good +
- +
-• Back in Philadelphia, the Court of Common Pleas denied the Phillies' request for an injunction that would have prevented [[Nap Lajoie]], [[Chick Fraser]], and [[Bill Bernhard]] from playing for the Athletics +
- +
-• According to the court, the issued turned on the reserve clause, saying that giving the team control over a player in perpetuity or releasing them with just ten-days notice demonstrated a lack of "mutuality'' between the two parties and persuaded the judges to rule against the team +
- +
-• Only Lajoie was named in the ruling, but by prior agreement it was construed to be applicable to Bernhard and Fraser, too +
