IN THE NEWS: Detroit and Washington take the unheard of time of two hours and 40 minutes to play nine innings. Detroit's 19 hits give them a 9-6 win, but much of the time is consumed by manager Ty Cobb's arguing over a balk call, then trying to have a heckling fan removed from the stands.

IN THE NEWS: Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth demonstrate that power hitting is not the only thing they can do when Lou scores on a double steal with the Babe in a victory over the White Sox. They had pulled the same double steal against the Red Sox on April 13th.

IN THE NEWS: Braves coach Art Devlin is riding Reds 3B Babe Pinelli. Coming off the field in the third, Pinelli brushes against him. Devlin swings, starting one of the great baseball fights of the century. Police restore order, but not before Boston OF Frank Wilson is arrested and taken to jail for hitting a police inspector. In the fourth, Boston OF Jimmy Welsh crashes into C Val Picinich in a play at the plate. Picinich takes a poke at him, starting round two, and is ejected.
