BOSTON IDLE; TIGERS TAKE OVER SECOND PLACE AS YANKS LOSE TO INDIANS

The Boston Red Sox were off today. The Cleveland Indians defeated New York, 10-6, allowing the Detroit Tigers to take over sole possession of second place, though that situation is sure to move back and forth between Detroit and the New York Yankees.

The Indians-Yankees game was the sole contest on the slate.
