4,610 fans were treated to a fine game at Navin Field as only one run
separated the combatants at game's end.  The spectacular Philadelphia
Athletics won by the slimmest of margins, 6 to 5.

Bill James(13-6) earned his pay with a solid performance for Philadelphia.  He
went 8 and 2/3 innings surrendering 8 hits and 8 walks.  Detroit threatened
in the 9th but Philadelphia was able to put down the rally.  

Bert Humphries earned the save, his 16th.  Wilbur Cooper(11-5) was hit with
the loss.  He got hit pretty hard, allowing 12 hits and 2 walks in 8 innings.

Despite losing Jim Murphy was optimistic after the game.  'We'll get over this
one.  Sometimes the breaks fall your way, sometimes they don't.  Any one of a
dozen little things go different, and we come out on top.'
