Yankees 8, Athletics 1: New York won going away at the Polo Grounds, as they broke open a low-scoring affair with a pile of late runs. It was a 1-1 game when the Yankees came to bat in the 6th but, after one out, they strung together four consecutive singles against Ray Roberts (1-1), and another with two outs to score three times. Four more runs crossed the plate in the home 8th behind Sammy Vick's three-run home run and Carl Mays (12-14) retired the last eight men to keep the As at bay. Vick had five RBI in the game to power the Yanks' attack. [box]

Tigers 6, White Sox 4: Hooks Dauss maneuvered through nine innings, and Ralph Young and Harry Heilmann had two hits apiece as Detroit took the decision from Chicago. Heilmann tripled and scored the first run of the game in the 2nd, and Young singled home a run in the 5th that gave the Tigers a 4-0 lead. It was 6-1 in the 8th when the Sox tried to rally back, scoring three times in the inning on four singles, but Dauss (11-17) wriggled free of the mess and then set down the final four ChiSox. Chicago couldn't muster an extra-base hit, had two men caught stealing and grounded into a double play, all of which meant that they only left three men on base on the afternoon. [box]
