1st

Boston clinches the NL pennant with its 17th consecutive victory, 6-1, in Philadelphia, while Chicago is losing to Cincinnati by the same score.

2nd

In the first-ever ML game in Minnesota, the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Columbus Buckeyes 5-0 in Minneapolis's Athletic Park.

Boston wins its 18th in a row as Kid Nichols becomes a 30-game winner for the first of 7 times in his career.

4th

Browns rookie Ted Breitenstein gets his first start on the final day of the season and hurls a no-hitter versus Louisville. He wins 8-0 while walking one and facing the minimum 27 batters.

6th

The AA season closes with Baltimore winning 2 games in Washington to capture 3rd place, one-half game ahead of the Athletics. There will be no all-Boston World Series because of the intransigence of the Beaneater owners.

17th

A New York judge rules that the Giants do not have to put a roof on their bleacher seats, despite a recent ordinance passed by the Board of Aldermen.
