TEAM RISP- Metropolitans: 0 for 2 Browns: 6 for 20
Bob Caruthers allowed only 3 hits resulting in a big goose egg on the
scoreboard for New York and left fielder Tip O'Neill hit for the cycle and
had 5 RBI as the blistering-hot St. Louis Browns man-handled the hapless New
York Metropolitans - the final score was 14 to 0.
O'Neill was spectacular at the plate. The hometown fans showed their
appreciation with a standing ovation his last time at bat. He smashed a
two-run homer in the 1st inning, doubled resulting in a run in the 3rd
inning, banged out a single in the 5th inning, cracked a solo homerun in the
7th inning and tripled which scored a run in the 8th inning. St. Louis
dominated offensively as they scored in 6 different innings.
It was the 2nd shutout of the year for Caruthers(24-4). The losing pitcher was
Ed Cushman(4-14). He served up 4 gopher balls in 8 innings.
'Caruthers pitched a gem of a game', O.P. Caylor recounted. 'He kept our
batters off balance the entire game.'
