The scores were 7 to 5 and 6 to 1. Paul (Dizzy) Trout got cred it for his sixth win in the first game, although Overmire pitch ed the first eight innings. The second game, was all Hal New houser as the Detroit Letty won his ninth game. Turner's wild pitch with the bases loaded and two out in the 10th inning cost the Yankees a 4 to 3 defeat by Philadelphia. It was the second successive one run defeat at the hands of the Athletics. ... Mickey Haefncr was a one- man team for Washington, pitch ing and batting the Senators to a 4 to 0 win over the Boston Red Sox. He allowed only five hits, made two cafe blows himself and scored twice.
