In the bottom of the 4th inning Washington scored 1 run. Neither team managed to score after the 4th inning. Whitney(17-9) was the winner allowing 2 runs for the game. Bill Burdick(3-4) was the losing pitcher. He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow an earned run in the game. The Washington ballclub's record now stands at 44-45. With the loss, the Indianapolis ballclub's record is 32-58, worst in the league.
