Fenway Fables

June 2, 1918 at Navin Field
Tigers 4, Red Sox 3  (25-16)

Babe Ruth really struggled in his first start in a couple of weeks and he took the loss as the Red Sox lost their third straight.  He gave up four runs on nine hits and three walks with two strikeouts but two of those walks came with the bases loaded.

Ruth did get it done at the plate though.  He belted a solo homer in the sixth inning to put the Red Sox on the board.  Stuffy McInnis was the only Red Sox with more then one hit with a pair of singles.
