Soggy conditions did not keep Boston and Detroit from playing their scheduled game.

In a low-scoring game between the Boston Terriers and the Detroit Wolverines, pitcher Bruce Shurtleff was masterful on the mound. The Boston left-hander spearheaded his team's 3-0 win. Shurtleff, the winner, moves to 4-0. He threw 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 5 and giving up 3 walks.

The Terriers had to work out of trouble in the top of the eighth. The score was 3-0, Boston, with one out. Detroit, with runners on 1st and 2nd, was mounting a threat. Pete Morrison dug in at the plate, but on a 1-2 fastball, he struck out.

The Wolverines are now 6-10.
