Nap Lajoie launched 3 homeruns and had 6 RBI and George Wheeler allowed Bill
Shettsline to rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game as the Philadelphia
Phillies defeated the Baltimore Orioles by a score of 12 to 3 at Union
Park.
Lajoie was unconscious out there. While Baltimore pitching was serving
softballs up there for him to hit, the Baltimore fans were serving up some
hardball barbs when he entered the batter's box. But he just used it as fuel
for the fire. He belted a three-run homer in the 2nd inning, smashed a
two-run homer in the 4th inning, smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' in the 7th
inning and banged out a single in the 8th inning. Philadelphia rapped out 14
hits for the afternoon.
The victory went to Wheeler(2-0) who went the distance allowing 3 runs. The
losing pitcher was Jerry Nops(1-4). By surrending 11 runs in 7 and 2/3
innings his ERA jumped from 2.91 to 4.54.
'I didn't feel that good when I came to the park today,' Lajoie said. 'I'm
glad I decided to play!'
