Schang Slugs Athletics to 13-4 Win
The Philadelphia Athletics defeated the Cleveland Blues, 13-4. Doing his part was catcher Wally Schang, who belted 2 home runs. He drove in 7 runs and scored twice. Rube Waddell, credited with the win, is now 14-6. He allowed 4 runs on 6 hits in 9 innings. The AL-leading Athletics have a record of 68-29.

Jerry Benjamin, the 23-year old left fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Benjamin contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the second inning to put Philadelphia up, 3-1.

"We'll take some time to unwind," said Benjamin, "and then get after it again."
