WEB GEMS- Top 1st: George McBride robbed Solly Hofman of a base hit.

Lefty Leifield(9-1), with relief help from Ray Collins, throttled Detroit
while the Philadelphia-AL Athletics scored 7 runs in a day game at Bennett
Park.

Leifield pitched a solid game.  He went 7 innings and surrended up 6 hits and
3 walks.  Neither team managed to score after the 3rd inning.  

Dolly Gray(5-6) ended up with the loss.  He allowed a few too many baserunners
giving up 9 hits and 2 walks in 5 innings.  

With this win, Philadelphia-AL has a 40-28 record.  They have been 7-3 lately.
Detroit can't seem to snap out of their recent 'funk'.  Now they have a
miserable 2-8 record over the last couple weeks.
