Fenway Fables

May 7, 1918 at Griffith Stadium
Senators 7, Red Sox 2  (12-7)

The Red Sox slide continued as they dropped their fourth straight game in their opener against the Senators.  Dutch Leonard was hit hard and he gave up seven runs on fourteen hits en route to the loss.

The Red Sox managed just four hits off of Walter Johnson.  One of those was a homerun by Babe Ruth, who got the start at first base again.
