• The Athletics tagged a pair of Orioles pitchers for 23 hits, but it wasn't enough as the Orioles came back from a five-run deficit to win their tenth straight, 15-13, in Baltimore

• A's third baseman Lave Cross was ejected in the sixth inning by umpire Al Mannassau for the ferocity of his protest regarding a close play at first base

• In the seventh inning a frustrated Wiley Piatt let Massannau have it over a called ball four and Massannau let Piatt have the rest of the game off

• George Leitner, a well-regarded amateur pitcher in the Baltimore area, made his major league debut and finished the game for the A's in Piatt's absence

• Phil Geier, who played three different positions in the game—shortstop, right field, and third base—went 5-for-6 with a triple, an RBI, and three runs scored

• Shortstop Joe Dolan missed the contest because of illness
