May 15th-NL

McJames masterful as Superbas keep on winning

Doc McJames (pictured) twirled a beauty against the Reds with a minimum of support, and earned the 1-0 decision. Joe Kelley singled in the only run of the game in the 3rd inning. McJames did have to escape from a huge jam in the 9th when he loaded the bases (two on walks) with 1 out. He retired Magoon and Peitz to preserve the shutout win.

Doc McJames blanked Cincinnati in a very well-pitched complete game at

Washington Park as the BROOKLYN SUPERBAS beat the Cincinnati Reds by the

count of 1 to 0.



McJames(1-1) was very good in the win. He didn't allow much, just 7 hits and

2 walks in 9 innings lowering his ERA from 8.64 to 4.15. Cincinnati had a

chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short.



Bill Phillips(1-3) suffered the loss. It was a tough loss for him as he did

not allow an earned run in his 8 innings of work.













May 15th-AL

Keister's heroics keep Athletics reeling

Bill Keister roped a 2-run double in the bottom of the 9th to bring the Orioles back from the dead and win the game 5-4. With the comeback win, the Orioles pull to within a game of the 1st place Tigers. Meanwhile, the Athletics fall to 5-11 and are only 1.5 games ahead of last place Milwaukee.

Harry Howell completed the game without help from the bullpen at Oriole Park

as the Baltimore Orioles won in dramatic fashion coming back to beat the

PHILADELPHIA ATHLETICS by the count of 5 to 4.



Baltimore came up with the deciding runs in the bottom of the 9th inning

scoring 2 runs on 3 hits. George Rohe led off the inning for Baltimore when

he delivered a base-hit. John McGraw followed and he drew a walk. After an

out was recorded, Jimmy Williams came to the plate and laced a single to load

the bases. Bill Keister stepped in and he doubled giving Baltimore the win

and sending the home town fans into a frenzy. Baltimore had a total of 11

hits for the game.



The win was credited to Howell(4-1) who went the whole way allowing 4 runs.

Wiley Piatt(0-4) was hit with the loss. He gave up 9 hits and 4 walks in 8

innings.



McGraw was all smiles after the ballgame, 'It sure was looking pretty dim

there for a while, but our guys never gave up - and neither did our fans -

they kept cheering us on. What a sweet win!'











Transactions- May 15th


Senators send Jack O'Brien packing

28 year old outfielder, Jack O'Brien was waived by the Washington Senators. O'Brien hadn't performed poorly thus far, hitting .286 with 11 runs batted in, in 49 at bats. Washington is said to prefer the 23-year old Pop Foster, a righthanded hitter to the just released lefty O'Brien.




Phillies looking for solutions at 2nd base, sign Barry


The Phillies are still searching for the answer at 2nd base, and have signed free agent Shad Barry. Barry had hit .279 in 43 at bats for the Boston Beaneater club earlier this season, but was squeezed out of playing time, and waived on May 9th.

May 14th-NL


McGuire's 3 hits help lead way to another Brooklyn win

Deacon McGuire (pictured) had a single, double and triple in assisting the Superbas to their 13th win of the season, against only 4 losses. Frank Kitson was able to snap out of his early season struggles as well, tossing a complete game, scattering 7 hits along the way. With Pittsburg dropping a game in Philly, the Superbas have a 1.5 game lead in the National League.

Pirates waive outfielder Smith

Pittsburg waived 33-year old outfielder Elmer "Mike" Smith today. Smith had played sparingly for the Pirates thus far, getting 5 at bats, and never connecting on a base hit. Smith was in his 14th season of professional ball, and his future plans are not known at this time.




Reds waive catcher Mike Kahoe

Cincinnati has waived 27-year old catcher-first basemen Mike Kahoe. Kahoe had 2 hits (including one double) in 12 at bats for the Reds this season. This was his 4th season with the club, and was looking to improve on his .189 batting average from last season. With Heinie Peitz and Bill Bergen on the roster already, Kahoe's days seemed to have been numbered from the beginning.




Orioles sign free agent pitcher Jack Dunn

Jack Dunn, who was released by the NL Phillies only two weeks ago, was signed to a contract by the Baltimore Orioles. Dunn had pitched quite poorly in two previous starts for the Phillies, compiling an 0-2 record and a 9.90 ERA. Dunn is expected to pitch and possibly play the infield or outfield for the Orioles.

Dahlen's first inning triple sends Superbas to another win
Bill Dahlen (pictured) cleared the loaded bases with a triple Brooklyn's 6-run first inning. Brooklyn would put up another 6 spot in the 3rd and send Giants starter Luther Taylor to an early shower. Wild Bill Donovan would be the recipient of the wonderful run support, but struggled late. He was obviously fatigued, but with no one available in the Brooklyn pen that also wasn't fatigued, he was forced to finish the game. He logged 210 pitches in running his record to 4-0 in the Superbas 13-10 win.

Wild Bill Donovan went the distance as the BROOKLYN SUPERBAS topped the New

York Giants by a score of 13 to 10 at Polo Grounds.



BROOKLYN wasted no time and took the lead in the first inning scoring 6

runners on 6 hits. The big moment was provided by Bill Dahlen who quieted

the home crowd when he tripled emptying the bases. New York made it exciting

in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across.



The win went to Donovan(4-0) who allowed 10 runs in the game. Luther

Taylor(0-5) suffered the loss. He was unable to control the BROOKLYN offense

and allowed 7 hits and 3 walks in 2 innings.

Fultz makes his only hit count as Athletics rally late

Leftfielder Dave Fultz (pictured) made his only hit of the game count as he drove a McGinnity offering into right field in the 7th to score the go-ahead run for Philadelphia. Lajoie followed with a 2-run shot to more or less put the game away. Bock Baker, in his Athletic debut, went the distance and got the win in the 8-3 game.

Howell pitches and hits Orioles to victory

It's said often that a player single-handedly won a game. This was certainly the actual definition of that rule. Harry Howell shut down the Athletics on only 4 hits. In the meantime, he was 3 for 4 at the plate, including a solo home run in the 6th, and drove in 4 runs! Orioles run their record to 8-4 while Philadelphia drops to 4-9.

Harry Howell pitched 9 strong innings and he left the yard and had 4 RBI as

Howell provided much of the offense. He doubled which scored a run in the 2nd

inning, lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in the 6th inning and doubled bringing

in two baserunners in the 8th inning. Offensively, Baltimore was a

juggernaut. They scored in 6 separate innings.



Howell(3-1) was credited with the shutout. Bill Bernhard(1-2) was hit with the

loss. He was hit hard and gave up 14 hits and 3 walks in 8 innings.

Boston started Daff Gammons in left in it's most recent game, but it's not clear who will take over the job on a regular basis.

Demontreville wears goat horns early but spurs comeback

Gene Demontreville (pictured) helped the visiting Superbas to an early 4-0 lead. Between allowing two singles at his position, he also committed 4 errors in the first two innings. But in the Beaneater's 3rd, he ripped a 2-run home run off Frank Kitson to cut the lead in half. This spurred the rest of the club and Boston would add five more over the next two innings. Superbas rallied late, but Boston hung on for their 4th win of the young season.

Fred Tenney had 3 base hits and Bill Dinneen was able to finish what he

started and was credited with a complete game at South End Grounds as the

Boston Beaneaters beat the BROOKLYN SUPERBAS 7 to 6.



Dinneen(2-1) earned his pay with a solid performance for Boston. He went 9

innings allowing 12 hits and 2 walks. BROOKLYN had a chance in the 9th but

they came up short.



Frank Kitson(0-2) took the loss. 'I always am most impressed when a pitcher

finds a way to win even without his best stuff,' Frank Selee said after the

game. 'Dinneen did not have command of his pitches most of the afternoon,

but he proved he really knew how to pitch!'
