Christy Mathewson tossed a complete game as the NY (AL) 1905 Giants defeated
the Phil. (AL) 1931 A's by a score of 4 to 2 at the ballpark.
 
In the 7th inning NY (AL) 1905 scored 3 runs with the help of 3 hits.  They
would prove to be the difference in the contest.  The game was a scoreless
duel until the 7th inning.  
 
The victory went to Mathewson(4-0) who went the distance allowing 2 runs.
George Earnshaw(2-2) was charged with the loss.  With this win, NY (AL) 1905
has a 11-7 record.  They have been 4-6 lately.  Phil. (AL) 1931's manager was
unhappy with his club's recent performance.  'We can't keep losing games' he
said.  'It gets to be embarrassing after a while.'
