CINCINNATI MONARCHS AT BOSTON BRAHMINS
GAME ID: 1512 - THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 15TH , 1887 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Cincinnati Monarchs (59-64) 1 0 2 0 2 0 1 0 0 6 9 2
Boston Brahmins (52-67) 0 0 1 2 0 0 5 1 X 9 14 3
Losing Streak Continues for Monarchs with 9-6 Loss to Brahmins
The Boston Brahmins used the hitting of shortstop Cecil Mathews to subdue the Cincinnati Monarchs, 9-6. For the game, Mathews went 3 for 4 with a triple, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. Roy Kane picked up the win, improving his season record to 10-8. He struck out 4 in 9 innings. After today's action, Boston sits at 52-67; Cincinnati slips to 59-64.

Had Don Frison not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Frison hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Brahmins.

"We're learning some lessons in the school of hard knocks," philosophized losing manager .
