Smoky Joe Wood racked up an impressive total of 12 strikeouts and left fielder
Fred Clarke hit 2 doubles and had 2 RBI at American League Park as the
Washington Nationals beat the Philadelphia-AL Athletics by the count of 5 to
2.

Wood(11-7) was solid in the win.  He allowed just 11 hits and no walks in 9
innings.  Washington totaled 10 hits on the afternoon.  

The loss was charged to Lefty Leifield(17-8).  Everyone seemed to enjoy the
performance of Wood - except Philadelphia-AL.  Andy Spector lamented, 'He
just was 'on' this afternoon.  He was keeping our guys off balance all game.
A fine game by a good strikeout pitcher - makes it a fun game for the
hometown fans - unfortunately we were the visitors!'
