Yankees 7, Athletics 2: In the final game of the American League campaign, New York brushed aside the last-placed As in front of a small, resigned gathering at Shibe Park that watched the home team lose for the 95th and final time of a long, painful season. The Athletics took a 2-1 lead in the 3rd when Amos Strunk delivered a two-out, two-run single, but the Yankees scored three times in the 6th (four straight base hits to start the inning) and then again in the 7th and George Mogridge (7-8) finished off the Philadelphians in style by setting down the final eleven hitters. Chick Fewster had three hits for New York, and he and Duffy Lewis each drove home a pair of runs. [box]
