by @ 3:24 am. Filed under 1918 Red Sox, 1918 Red Sox Diary - May

May 6, 1918 at the Polo Grounds
Yankees 10, Red Sox 3  (12-6)

The Red Sox dropped their third straight game and lost their first series of the season in a lopsided contest.  Carl Mays and Sad Sam Jones took it on the chin and they combined to give up ten runs on thirteen hits.

Babe Ruth got the start at first base and he belted a two run homer in the fourth inning.  It was one of his two hits in the contest. Wally Schang doubled, singled and scored a run in the loss.
