Top 8th: Oscar Stanage blocked the plate, saving a run! 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!'
