Boston's Tannehill Outduels Waddell
Tuesday, May 8th, 1906: Boston's Tannehill Outduels Waddell
With the home crowd in a frenzy behind him,Boston Americans star pitcher Jesse Tannehill(4-2) was in dominating form,as he allowed just 5 hits and 2 earned runs while fanning 6 in Boston's 4-2 victory over the Philadelphia Athletics.The A's who for the second straight game could get nothing going offensively,pinned all of their hopes on starter Rube Waddell(4-1) who unfortunately could not come through lasting only 7 innings while allowing 6 hits,4 walks and 4 earned runs in his first loss of the season.Americans first baseman Lou Criger was the difference maker offensively,going 2 for 3 with a huge 2 run double in the 3rd that would turn out to be the game winning hit.

After the doctor informed the St. Louis Cardinals manager that Yeager was expected to miss 7 weeks, the manager told the press that the rest of the team would have to step up their play until the shortstop could return. "You can't make excuses in baseball, because there's always a game tomorrow," said the team's skipper.
This year Yeager has socked 17 hits in 91 at-bats for a .187 average with no home runs. He is getting on base at a .279 pace and his totals also include 7 RBIs and 8 runs scored.

Re: The Philadelphia Athletics,1905 And On-OOTP 9
Plank's Pregame Outburst Inspires A 12-1 Drubbing Of Detroit
Columbia Park,Phila,Pa.-Disgusted by his own performance as well as that of his teammates,Athletics starting pitcher Eddie Plank removed everyone except players from the room before slamming the door and letting loose on a vicious tirade in which he slammed tables,broke chairs,and yelled to the high heavens before letting loose his mates on an unsuspecting Detroit Tiger team who were absolutely destroyed 12-1.Plank(3-4),as expected led the way holding the Tigers to just 2 hits a walk and 1 run in the complete game victory while Ossee Schreckengost and Danny Murphy paced the offense.For Detroit,starting pitcher George Mullin(2-6) was absolutely bombed allowing 9 runs and 10 hits in 6 and two thirds for his 6th loss of the season.Here's the box score.

Beaneaters Chill Huggins's Streak
Saturday, May 19th, 1906: Beaneaters Chill Huggins's Hot Streak
It was the best of both worlds for the Boston Beaneaters today at Palace of the Fans as they defeated the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 and also ended Miller Huggins's 20-game hitting streak. The 28-year-old Cincinnati second baseman failed to get a hit in 5 at-bats.
"Nothing personal against Miller, we just wanted to win the game," said the victorious Beaneaters skipper. "We did a great job keeping him off-balance and guessing."
When asked by reporters about his streak coming to an end, Huggins frowned and said, "I won't lie and say that I'm not disappointed about my streak ending, but I would feel much better about things if we had won the game."
In 1906, Huggins is hitting .278 with no home runs and 2 RBIs in 32 games played. He also boasts an OBP of .351 with 15 walks and 17 runs scored.

Who needs batting practice? Roy Thomas of Philadelphia apparently doesn't as he battered Chicago with a 5-hit outburst in today's game to lead his club to a 3-0 win.
He told the press after the game, "And I didn't even take BP today. I think I have been taking too many swings before game and decided to take a day off. Wow, this was really something... a 5 for 5 day... will my name be in the record books now?"
R. Thomas singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
This season Thomas has no home runs and a .272 batting average.
Duggleby Tames Cubs
Saturday, May 19th, 1906: Duggleby Tames Cubs
Bill Duggleby was in command in his outing against the Chicago Cubs. He hurled the Philadelphia Phillies to a 3-0 shutout victory, yielded 3 hits and chalked up 1 strikeout and 2 walks.
"A complete-game shutout. That's fun territory for me," he told reporters in the postgame interview. "I had good balance and mechanics and was able to keep the ball down. When I do that, good things happen."
In 8 starts this season Duggleby has crafted a 2-4 record with a 3.02 ERA.
