Philadelphia found themselves trailing quickly as the St. Louis bats came through in the first inning when they scored 2 runs on 3 hits. The early run support proved sufficient for Cox(11-12) and St. Louis. That was all the run support Cox required. St. Louis rapped out 12 hits for the night.
John Denny(11-14) was the loser. He got hammered, allowing 10 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings.
