The Athletics had a quick, make up game against the Senators before the Red Sox come into Shibe and they dispatched them easily, with a 12-5 win.
Fred Caligiuri started and went five innings, leaving with a 4-2 lead, but was not particularly sharp to that point. Bump Hadley came on in relief and though he would surrender three runs, his teammates rallied for eight runs, to earn Bump the win.
Bob Johnson and Ray Dandridge had three hits each and Benny McCoy homered for just the second time this season.
