Rosenthal Leads Brooklyn to 1-0 Win Over Detroit
Brooklyn Unions starter Abel Rosenthal really did a number on the Detroit Spartans, shutting them out, 1-0, on 5 hits in a complete game victory. He issued 3 walks and had 3 strikeouts.

"We didn't have good at-bats," said Detroit manager . "I don't make excuses, but when we were playing the game, our energy didn't show. That comes from either extremely good pitching or extremely lousy hitting and seeing as our team has a bunch of good hitters, I have to tip my cap to Rosenthal."
