John Coleman was able to finish what he started and was credited with a
complete game as the Philadelphia Athletics beat the St. Louis Browns by a
score of 8 to 7.
Philadelphia came through with the game-winning runs in the top of the 8th
inning as they scored 4 runs on 4 base hits. St. Louis was not lacking for
run support as they scored in 5 separate innings, yet victory eluded them as
they seemed to forget that pitching is also needed to win ballgames.
The win was credited to Coleman(1-0) who went the whole way allowing 7 runs.
Bob Caruthers(4-2) took the loss. He pitched 9 innings allowing 11 hits and
1 walk.
