TEAM RISP- Athletics: 14 for 27 Virginians: 0 for 4
First baseman Harry Stovey slammed 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI and Bobby Mathews
took a no-hitter into the 7th inning as the amazing Philadelphia Athletics
crushed the Richmond Virginians 24 to 0.
Stovey was in a groove all day. The Richmond fans hated to see him approaching
the batter's box. He doubled in the 1st inning, smacked a three-run homer in
the 3rd inning, ripped a base-knock in the 4th inning, ripped a solo home run
in the 8th inning and stroked a one-base hit in the 9th inning. Philadelphia
bats were very productive in the 2nd inning which saw them plate 5 runs on 7
hits and the 8th inning with 7 runs on 8 hits. Offensively, Philadelphia was
a juggernaut. They scored in 6 separate innings.
For Mathews(25-7) it was his 3rd shutout this year. The right-handed Mathews
lost a no-hitter when Bill Schenck singled with nobody out in the 7th inning.
Ed Dugan(0-1) was the losing pitcher. Philadelphia scored big getting 24
runs off him in 9 innings.
Richmond's manager was obviously impressed with the pitching of Mathews, 'That
guy made us look a little silly out there this afternoon. We just couldn't
get to him at all - everything was working for him. I just hope that he got
that kinda performance out of his system.'
