Jeff Tesreau completed the game without help from the bullpen as the New York
Giants defeated the Boston Braves by the score of 8 to 4 at Polo
Grounds.
New York had 4 runs cross the plate in the bottom of the 7th inning with the
help of 5 hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by George Burns who elicited
a roar from the hometown fans when he slapped a base-hit bringing home two
baserunners. New York and Boston each finished the afternoon with 11 hits.
The victory was credited to Tesreau(18-10) who went the distance, allowing 4
runs. Bill James(14-8) was given the loss. He was hit hard and gave up 11
hits and 4 walks in 8 innings.
The winning ways continue for New York. They now have a record of 8-2 in
recent days. Boston has a record of 55-44 after the loss.
