Stovey really lit it up for Philadelphia. The New York fans let him have it for what he did to their boys. He laced a single in the 1st inning, smacked a one-base hit which plated a run in the 2nd inning, doubled in the 4th inning, slapped a single in the 7th inning, doubled in the 7th inning and lifted one out of the park for a two run home run in the 9th inning. Philadelphia provided plenty of action in the 2nd inning which saw them score 4 runs on 3 hits and the 7th inning with 6 runs on 7 hits. The Philadelphia offense man-handled the New York pitching staff as they scored in 8 of the 9 innings. The win went to Mathews(1-0) who allowed 5 runs in the game. Ed Bagley(2-2) suffered the loss. He got hit hard, allowing 28 hits and 5 walks in 9 innings. Stovey said, 'It was just all timing. I had pretty good rhythm at the plate today. You've got to take advantage of mistakes when you can. A couple pitches were definitely up a little bit - right in my zone.'
