White Sox 8, Senators 5  (89-55)

The White Sox won their fifth straight game in the opener of a double header with the Washington Senators.  Frank Owen gave up the lead in the fifth inning but the White Sox stormed back and Ed Walsh picked things up nicely out of the pen.  Walsh didn’t give up a hit and walked two batters in 4 2/3 shutout innings.

George Rohe had a big day at the plate.  He singled three times and scored twice.  Ed Hahn walked twice, singled and scored three runs.

Senators 3, White Sox 0  (89-56)

The White Sox five game winning streak came to an end in the second game of a double header with the Washington Senators.  As they’ve done through out the season, the White Sox hardly hit the ball.  They managed only three singles and one walk without scoring a run.

Ed Walsh was bounced after he gave up three runs in the fourth inning.  Frank Smith held the Senators in check the rest of the way but the White Sox couldn’t get their bats going to come back.
