Jackass of the Night is Tommy Dowd. He was 0 for 4 out of the leadoff spot and you're not gonna score much if your leadoff hitter can't get on.
Dowd The JackassThe Good:
Hobe Ferris was 1 for 3.
The Bad:
Charlie Hemphill was 0 for 4.
Charlie Jones was 0 for 4.
Lou Criger was 0 for 3 with a strikeout.
The Ugly:
Jimmy Collins was just 1 for 4.
Buck Freeman was just 1 for 4 with a strikeout.
Freddy Parent was just 1 for 4.
George Cuppy took the loss but allowed just 2 earned runs in a complete game effort, he also drew a walk at the plate.
Final Thoughts:
No offense and making errors is a surefire way to lose a game and the Pilgrims found a way to lose. Its amazing how an offense that couldn't miss just a week ago can't hit the broad side of a barn at home against the Senators. Lee doesn't turn 22 until August so losing to a kid THIS bad is nothing short of shameful. The season is long so this recent slump may not last but the Pilgrims look awful lately. There's not much you can say that hasn't already been said other than they need to cut down on the errors. The loss drops the Pilgrims to 7-9, 5.5 game behind the Detroit Tigers for first place in the American League. The Sox look to snap their four game losing streak tomorrow afternoon when John McGraw's Baltimore Orioles come to town. Ted Lewis (2-1) goes for the Pilgrims against Orioles ace Joe McGnnity. The game begins at 2:00 PM at the Huntington Avenue Grounds.
