WEB GEMS- Top 3rd: Mike Powers blocked the plate, saving a run!

First baseman Jake Beckley had 3 base hits and Cy Young completed the game
without help from the bullpen as the Philadelphia-AL Athletics rallied
impressively to win in dramatic style over Boston-AL Americans, 6 to
5.

Philadelphia-AL won the game with a rally in the 9th inning when they came up
with 5 runs on 5 hits.  The critical plate appearance was by Freddy Parent
who deflated the spirits of the home town crowd when he tripled bringing home
two baserunners.  Boston-AL proved to be no trouble in the bottom of the 9th.

The victory went to Young(5-2) who went the distance allowing 5 runs. Wiley
Piatt(0-2) was given the loss in relief.  He was unable to retire a batter
giving up 1 hit and no walks.

After the game, it took a long while before Elliott McKinley emerged from his
office.  In a subdued tone he answered only a couple of questions.  He
concluded with, 'Fellows, sorry I'm not in a very talkative mood this
afternoon, as I think you'll understand.  I'm sure you'll find the banter a
lot more light-hearted over in the Philadelphia-AL locker room.'
