New York took the lead for keeps in the 7th inning plating 2 runs utilizing 2 base hits. Al Bridwell opened up the inning nicely when he doubled. Mathewson came next and he laid down a sacrifice bunt. Fred Tenney then would hit into a fielders choice plating a run. After another out, Roger Bresnahan came to the plate and doubled scoring the final run of the inning. New York had a total of 11 hits for the game. The victory was credited to Mathewson(22-5) who went the distance, allowing 2 runs. Slim Sallee(2-9) was the losing pitcher. He got hit pretty hard, allowing 11 hits and 5 walks in 8 and 2/3 innings. The winning ways continue for New York. They now have a record of 8-2 in recent days. John McCloskey was pretty down after the loss. 'We've really been sputtering along lately, something like 2-8 in the last week or two. That won't get it done.'
