Joe Murphy tossed a complete game as the sizzling St. Louis Browns outscored
the Philadelphia Athletics 15 to 12.

Bob Caruthers provided much of the offense.  He tripled scoring a run in the
3rd inning, ripped a solo home run in the 5th inning and doubled in the 8th
inning.  St. Louis bats were very productive in the 8th inning with 7 runs on
6 hits.  Philadelphia scored in 6 different innings, but their shaky pitching
kept them from victory.  

Murphy(1-0) finished the game allowing 12 runs in the victory. Bobby
Mathews(1-8) took the loss.  He surrended 3 homeruns in his 8 innings.  

St. Louis continued their winning ways, with their streak now at 8 games and
counting. 'We're on quite a roll lately' said Charlie Comiskey.  'I just hope
we can keep it going.'
