Fenway Fables

May 3, 1918 at the Polo Grounds
Yankees 3, Red Sox 2  (12-4)

Wally Pipp singled home the winning run in the bottom of the twelth inning as the Red Sox took their second loss in three games.  Bullet Joe Bush threw a nice game but the Red Sox just couldn’t get their bats going.  He gave up three runs on nine hits and four walks with five strikeouts and he pitched all twelve innings.

Dave Shean had a pair of singles and he scored one of the two Red Sox runs.  Everett Scott had the only extra base hit for the Red Sox with a triple and he scored the other run.
