Monday, September 18th, 1905: Player of the Week Trophy to Davis
A battle-tested George Davis declared war on opposing pitchers last week, attacking the ball like the well-schooled veteran he is. Today the 35-year-old Chicago shortstop collected the American League Player of the Week Award.
He wrapped up the week with a .591 average, 13 hits in 22 at-bats, no home runs, 7 RBIs and 6 runs scored.
For 1905 Davis is batting .314 with 2 home runs, 63 RBIs and 72 runs scored
Monday, September 18th, 1905: NL Player of the Week Picked
Last week when the New York skipper penciled in "Hooks Wiltse" on the lineup card, it was a good sign. He delivered a 2-0 record and a 1.00 ERA and was voted the National League Player of the Week.
In 13 starts this year Wiltse has fashioned a 15-4 record and a 2.14 ERA.

Re: The Philadelphia Athletics,1905 And On-OOTP 9
A's Defeat Highlanders On Late Blast By Davis!
Hilltop Park,NY,NY-Starting pitchers Chief Bender and Jack Chesboro were both at their best today as the teams took a 1-1 tie into the 8th inning where A's slugger Harry Davis broke the game open with a wind aided 3 run homer giving Philadelphia a hard fought 4-2 victory.Entering the second inning still scoreless,the Athletics got the first run of the game on a Bris Lord RBI single,the Highlanders came right back in their half though,tying the game on a Kid Elberfeld ground ball to second.From there,neither team could get anything going until the 8th where A's CF Danny Hoffman's one out double energized the Philadelphia bench.Following a Topsy Hartsel intentional walk and a Lave Cross fly out to left,Harry Davis,to the chagrin of the New York faithful,blasted a 3 run home run to right giving the Athletics a 4-1 lead.The Highlanders got one of the runs back in the bottom of the inning on a Frank LaPorte sacrifice fly but it wasn't enough and Philadelphia extended their winning streak to 8 games while keeping pace with Chicago who also won today by the score of 3-2.Here's the box score.

Waddell Wins 9th Straight For League Leading 23rd Victory
Hilltop Park,NY,NY-Once again,the White Elephants jumped on the back of the man on the hill and rode him straight to victory as Rube Waddell(23-12) outdueled Highlander starter Al Orth(11-19) in the Philadelphia 2-1 victory.With the game still scoreless in the top of the 7th,Harry Davis led off with a single to center and then advanced to second on an errant pickoff attempt.With a base now open,the New Yorkers decided to intentionally walk RBI machine Danny Murphy and take their chances with Monte Cross.Monte made them pay however with an RBI single to right,following that,catcher Tom Needham grounded into a run scoring fielder's choice and just like that it was 2-0 Athletics.Waddell continued to cruise until with two outs in the 9th he lost concentration and walked two straight batters and allowed an RBI single to Rube Oldring before regaining his composure and getting a game ending ground out from Doc Casey .Here's the box score

Wednesday, September 20th, 1905: Wilhelm Razor-Sharp, Shuts out Brooklyn
"I felt great out there. After the second or third inning, I got real comfortable," Kaiser Wilhelm said in his postgame interview. "Hopefully this is a building block for me. I'm hoping for a few more starts like this."
The Boston hurler scored a 10-0 shutout victory over the Superbas, stopping them on 4 hits. He rung up 3 strikeouts and gave up 1 walk in today's performance.
So far this year Wilhelm has compiled a 11-22 record with a 2.71 ERA.
Wednesday, September 20th, 1905: Chance Socks it to Reds, Cracks 5 Hits
It was a parade of hits for Frank Chance of the Chicago Cubs... one right after another... a total of 5 for the day. He ravaged the Cincinnati Reds for 5 hits in his 9 at-bats and propelled the Cubs to a 8-7 victory.
"Chance was really good and we were really bad," groaned the Reds manager. "Next time he's that hot, we'll just walk him."
F. Chance struck out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th, singled in the 7th, walked in the 9th, grounded out in the 11th, flied out in the 13th, singled in the 16th, walked in the 18th, singled in the 20th and hit a solo-shot off T. Walker in the 23rd.
Thus far this season Chance has hit .298 with 6 home runs, 56 RBIs and scored 69 times

Friday, September 22nd, 1905: Cubs Just a half game back!
Thanks to two home runs by Frank Schulte,the Chicago Cubs defeated the New York Giants 8-4 moving them just one half game behind first place New York.Chicago starter Jake Weimer was credited with the win,his 22nd.
Friday, September 22nd, 1905: Howell Fashions Shutout Against Boston
"That's one thing that has never changed in this game -- pitching can control hitting," the Browns manager told reporters after today's game.
The Americans ran into a buzzsaw as Harry Howell cut them down to size 2-0 with a 4-hit shutout.
His skipper added, "He knows exactly what he's doing. He's not going to throw you a good pitch until you make him throw one."
In the complete game whitewash the St. Louis hurler doled out 1 walk and registered 3 strikeouts.
In the postgame press conference his catcher said, "Harry goes out there and just goes about his business. I don't think he gets too concerned about what's going on. You can call any pitch and you know where he's going to be."
Howell also got some praise from the Boston manager.
"He really kept us in check today. Everything looked to be moving. Seemed like the pitch was right down the middle and it went over down and away... we took some pathetic swings."
In 1905 Howell has compiled a 12-20 mark with a 2.53 ERA.

Comeback In 12th Saves Season For Athletics
Columbia Park,Phila,Pa.-In a game that was entirely too close for comfort,the Philadelphia Athletics rallied from two runs down in the 7th to force extra innings and then down a run in the 12th thanks to a Patsy Dougherty home run,the A's got three straight one out singles with Harry Davis getting the final one to score Danny Murphy to give the A's the 4-3 victory which saves the season for yet another day.Starting tomorrow though,the A's start a 3 game series with the first place White Sox who lead Philadelphia by three games with just 9 remaining.The Athletics must take at least two of three just to have a chance over the final week of the season.Here's today's box score.

Chicago Proves To Be Too Much As Athletics Fall 5-3 Severely Damaging Series Hopes
Columbia Park,Phila,Pa.-In a wildly entertaining game,the Chicago White Sox proved to be too much for the valiant Athletics who fought hard but came up short 5-3.A's second baseman Danny Murpy did all that he could to will a victory,going 2 for 4 with a home run and all 3 RBI but the Sox always had an answer,with the final ones coming in the 8th where with the game tied at 3,Nixey Callahan slapped a two run single to right scoring Frank "The Philly killer" Isbell and George Rohe for the final runs of the game.With the victory,the Sox have now moved to 4 games ahead of the A's with just 8 left to play dropping their magic number to 5.Here's the box score.

Re: The Philadelphia Athletics,1905 And On-OOTP 9
Plank Blanks Chicago 4-0 Setting Up Monumental Rubber Match
Columbia Park,Phila,Pa.-Following today's fantastic performance by Eddie Plank in which he held the big hitting White Sox to a mere 6 hits and 0 runs in Philadelphia's 4-0 victory,game three set up to be the most pivital game of the season for both teams as a win for Chicago would all but wrap things up as they would be up 4 with 6 to play,but a win by Philadelphia and the A's are down only two which keeps them in striking distance should Chicago falter in the last week of the season.In this afternoons game,Harry Davis had a huge 2 run homer in the bottom of the 6th that turned a 1-0 into a 3-0 game and all but ended it right there with the way Plank was pitching.As for Plank,his record now improves to 22-11 with a 1.81 ERA while Chicago starter Nick Altrock falls to 22-11 with a 2.07 ERA.Here's the box score.
