Cannonball Titcomb completed the game without help from the bullpen at
Jefferson St Grounds as the Philadelphia Athletics beat the Brooklyn Grays 9
to 7.

Philadelphia came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 8th
inning with 2 runs on 2 hits.  After an out was recorded, Wilbert Robinson
began the Philadelphia spurt when he reached on an error.  One out later,
Harry Stovey came to the plate and tripled bringing in a run.  Tom Poorman
then doubled scoring the final run of the inning.  Both teams ended up with
10 hits on the afternoon.  

Titcomb(1-0) was the winner allowing 7 runs for the game. Hardie
Henderson(1-1) suffered the loss.  He was knocked around, surrendering 9 runs
in 8 innings.  

'I always am most impressed when a pitcher finds a way to win even without his
best stuff,' Charlie Mason said after the game.  'Titcomb did not have
command of his pitches most of the afternoon, but he proved he really knew
how to pitch!'
