Boston added an insurance run in the top of the ninth thanks to a John Knoght error that scored Clyde Engle. Harry Wolter led off the bottom of the inning with a single and scored on a Dolan single, but Collins finished off the next three hitters for the complete game win.

1911 Top Mound Showdown - Moore v Marquard
Earl Moore (10-64, Phillies) v Rube Marquard (10-66, Giants)

1911 Giants 100 100 001 - 1 5 0
W - Moore L - Marquard
Home Runs - Sherry Magee 2 (Phi), Roy Thomas (Phi)
Bit of a strange game this one. Magee's first home run came in the first inning - off Marquard's card. Thomas' homer in the seventh also came off Marquard's card - a card with only one home run number! Marquard did not pitch badly, but those home runs doomed him.

Not much to say about this one. The Phillies took batting practice against Adams pounding out 10 hits off him in just 4.2 innings. Alexander had little trouble with the Pirates until the seventh when they scored three meaningless runs.

The game that seemed to go on forever!
The Red Sox drew first blood in the top of the fifth when Harry Hooper singled home Bill Carrigan. The White Sox tied the game in the bottom of the sixth when Shano Collins doubled and scored on a Duffy Lewis two base error. Each team had good scoring opportunities in subsequent innings, but that was all the scoring until the bottom of the thirteenth.
Matty McIntyre singled with two out and advanced to second when Lee Tannehill drew a walk. Shano Collins smashed a grounder to third, but Larry Gardner's poor throw bounced past Clyde Engle allowing McIntyre to score the winning run.

Bender and the A's took a 3-1 lead in the top of the eighth when it all came apart for the Mack Attack. After the Pale Hose banged out hits and Philly committed three errors in the inning, the White Sox had a 7-3 lead. The A's added two runs in the bottom of the ninth before their rally fizzled out.

1911 Giants 000 000 20- - 2 6 2
W - Mathewson L - Richie
Mathewson had some bad luck in the first inning when Josh Devore's two base error on lead off hitter Jimmy Sheckard led to an unearned run. Solly Hofman's sac fly scored Sheckard. But after that Mathewson was really on his game retiring 16 hitters in a row during one stretch.
Richie kept the Giants off the scoreboard until seventh. Larry Doyle led off with a triple and scored on Red Murray's single. Murray scored what turned out to be the game winner on Fred Merkle's triple.

1935 All-Star Game
The game was played in Cleveland, so the AL was the home team. Bill Walker started for the NL and Lefty Gomez for the AL. Here's how it went.
Joe Vosmik led off the bottom of the first with a walk and scored on a Jimmie Foxx sac fly. AL leads 1-0.
Jimmie Wilson tripled off Lefty Grove in the top of the fifth and then scored on Pepper Martin's single to tie the game 1-1.
The Nationals took the lead in the eighth on a strange sequence. Arky Vaughan walked and then went to third after singles by Mel Ott and Ducky Medwick. With the bases loaded and Mel Harder on the mound for the AL, Harder inexplicably balks to score Vaughan! NL leads 2-1.
Buddy Myer led off the eighth with a walk and then scored when Earl Averill drew a bases loaded walk against Dizzy Dean. Game tied 2-2.
In the bottom of the tenth Ben Chapman doubles off Paul Derringer. That brings pitcher Tommy Bridges to the plate. I tried to play everybody, so I have no pinch-hitter for Bridges. But Bridges is not a terrible hitter for a pitcher - he hit .239. You can see where this is going, no? Sure enough, Bridges doubles to score Chapman with the winning run. Bridges gets the walk off double and the Win too.

Koufax wasn't on his game at all. After some lead changes, the Dodgers took a 5-4 lead into the top of the ninth before Dick Groat's two run homer gave the Pirates a 6-5 lead. The Dodgers couldn't rally in the bottom of the inning, so it's a disappointing night for the Chavez Ravine faithful.
