Boston had the winning rally in the top of the 9th inning when they tallied 4 runs on 4 hits. The critical plate appearance was by Hank Majeski who quieted the crowd when he depressed the partisan hometown fans with a grand slam home run. A wild and woolly affair, this game saw the lead change 5 times. The victory was credited to Forrest Thompson(1-0) who went 1 and 1/3 innings, allowing no runs. Cliff Chambers(2-2) suffered the loss in relief. He was knocked around by Boston, allowing 6 hits and 2 walks in 3 innings.
