| Washington Beats Kansas City, 7-6 | The inspired effort of Kansas City right fielder Dave Fultz was not enough to prevent a loss, 7-6, to the Washington Senators. Fultz went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times. The winner in relief was Jumbo Brown. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.2 innings. He now owns a record of 4-1. Washington has now won 3 straight, while the Athletics have lost 3 in a row.
Washington used the timely hitting of Steven Souza to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Senators on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.
"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Souza said.
