This time around, it was Smokey Joe Williams who went the distance, to earn his second complete game, in a 3-1 win, in game two. All of Philadelphia’s runs came via the long ball. Benny McCoy and Josh Gibson belted back to back home runs in the first inning and that was all Williams needed. Gibson also reached the 100 rbi plateau.
The Athletics head out on an 18 game road trip, starting in New York.
