Babe Ruth Slugs Eleventh Homer In Red Sox Win Over Senators

by @ 3:47 am. Filed under 1918 Red Sox Diary - June

June 30, 1918 at Griffith Stadium
Red Sox 3, Senators 1  (39-28)

Babe Ruth belted a two run homer in the top of the tenth inning as the Red Sox not only topped the Senators for the second straight game, but they also reclaimed the lead in the American League.  The homerun for Ruth was his eleventh of the season and Harry Hooper and Wally Schang each had a single and a double in the win.

Carl Mays threw all ten innings and he definitely got the job. He gave up just one run on six hits and a walk with six strikeouts.
