Babe Ruth Homers In Red Sox Loss to Yankees

by Dan Thorton @ 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.

Alliance Tickets

See if another title will be won by purchasing Green Bay Packers Tickets for the season. One of the model franchises is in Foxboro as New England Patriots Tickets are tough to get. The NFC East is pretty competitive so get New York Giants Tickets to see the rivalries. With a new identity New York Jets Tickets are great for the new stadium.
