Braddock, on Top of His Game, Beats Philadelphia, 8-0
It was not a good day at the plate for the Philadelphia Blue Caps. They came up empty when it mattered against Cleveland Bears left-hander Amos Braddock, who scattered 2 hits across 9 innings and held the Blue Caps scoreless.

"We had 2 hits so I know he wasn't completely untouchable, but he was close," Philadelphia manager said later.

Braddock chalked up 2 strikeouts and 2 walks in the 8-0 Bears win.
