FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»September 28, 1901: In the 2nd game of a doubleheader, Boston rookie Jake Volz walks nine Brewers, but still wins 10-9 in a game called after seven innings. Manager Jimmy Collins has two homers and Hobe Ferris wins the game with a 2-run triple in the bottom of the 7th. This is the season finale for Boston and it is the 3rd doubleheader in a row shortened because of darkness. Boston takes the opener, 8-5.
