Philadelphia Breaks Through for First Win in World Series; Now Trails 3-1
On the verge of being swept and facing a red-hot Pittsburgh Industrials team, John Reynolds had a tough assignment. He delivered.

The Philadelphia Quakers right-hander dominated the hosts, tossing 8 innings of shutout ball and guiding his club to its first victory of the series, 3-0. Reynolds, 27, was named player of the game after he threw 8 innings of shutout ball in the contest. The win means Philadelphia now trails 3-1 in the best-of-7 series.

In his 118-pitch effort, Reynolds allowed no earned runs on 4 hits over 8 innings. He walked 5 and struck out 5.

"I had everything working," said Reynolds.

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow in Pittsburgh. Slated to start are Joe Hinman for Philadelphia and Elmer Deaton for Pittsburgh.
