Yankees 8, Athletics 3 (1-0)
Babe Ruth didn’t need the long ball as he scored three runs with a walk and a triple as the Yankees took their season opener over the Athletics. Ty Cobb began his season with a pair of singles and two walks but it wasn’t nearly enough as the Yankees rolled over the Athletics. Lou Gehrig had a nice game with two singles, a run and two RBIs.
Herb Pennock went the distance and he picked up the win. He gave up three runs on seven hits and five walks with four strikeouts.
