TEAM RISP- Athletics: 0 for 13  Red Stockings: 4 for 18

Al Spalding pitched a complete game and right fielder Dave Birdsall smacked 3
triples and had 2 RBI as the Boston Red Stockings man-handled the
Philadelphia Athletics - the final score was 14 to 4.

Birdsall provided much of the offense.  He tripled resulting in a run in the
1st inning, tripled in the 5th inning and tripled which scored a run in the
6th inning.  Boston simply wore out the Philadelphia pitching staff, scoring
in 6 different innings.  

Spalding(16-8) allowed 4 runs on the game. George Bechtel(1-2) was hit with
the loss.  Boston knocked him around a bit, as he gave up 14 runs in 8
innings.
