Six pitchers took part in the struggle, three on each side. Smith, Altrock and Wlash performed for Chicago, while Cicotte, Steele and Burchell worked for the Boston team. The game took two hours and twenty-five minutes of the most strenuous kind of playing, and the big crowd out to watch for another victory was kept on edge all the way to the finish, when Walsh struck out Jake Stahl with a runner on second awaiting for a hit to tie the score. Sixteen hits were made by the home players, but they were scattered along more than the twelve swats credited to the JVhite Sox.

Flood, will probably be out of the game for the rest of the season.
