TEAM RISP- Giants: 2 for 6 Athletics: 8 for 20
Left fielder Zack Wheat had 5 hits and 3 RBI as the Philadelphia Athletics
topped the New York Giants by a score of 12 to 5 at Shibe Park.
Wheat enjoyed a fine day at the plate. He smashed a solo-shot out of the park
in the 2nd inning, doubled bringing in a run in the 3rd inning, laced a
base-knock in the 5th inning, delivered a base-hit in the 6th inning and
slapped a one-base hit scoring a run in the 8th inning. Philadelphia had 19
hits for the game and New York had 10.
The win was credited to Joe Benz(1-0) who went 7 innings allowing 5 runs. Guy
Morton gained credit for his 1st save. Pete Alexander(0-1) ended up with the
loss. He was not very effective, surrendering 12 runs in 7 and 2/3 innings.
