IN THE NEWS: The Cubs and Reds turn nine double plays, tying the Detroit-Washington 1925 mark. The 7-5 Chicago win is their seventh in a row, giving them a half-game lead over the Pirates.

The Cubs Hack Wilson jumps into the Reds dugout to fight pitcher Ray Kolp, who has been needling him. Wilson is stopped and ejected before reaching Kolp. The Cubs win 10-5, and that evening, when both teams are at Chicago's Union Station awaiting trains, Wilson floors Reds pitcher Pete Donohue.

IN THE NEWS: After losing 11 in a row, including a 10-6 loss in the opener, the Cardinals break out in the second game. They score 10 in the first and 10 more in the fifth to wallop the Phils 28-6 on 28 hits. The run and hit totals are NL records. The Cardinals (43) and Phillies (30) combine for a ML-tying 73 hits in the doubleheader at cozy Baker Bowl.

After watching the Tigers belt eight HRs on the second, third, and fourth, the Browns use the off day to erect a screen in front of the RF pavilion. The screen stretches 156 feet from the foul pole toward CF, 310 feet down the line from home. In the next day's game, Heinie Manush will hit three balls off the screen against the Yankees' Waite Hoyt, while Ruth will hit two off it in the series. This screen will remain in place into the 1940s, the only stadium with extended OF seating where it is impossible to catch a HR ball.
