Urban Shocker was hit hard and he took the loss against the A’s.  He and Wilcy Moore combined to give up eight runs on twelve hits to the A’s. 

On offense, the Yankees got a bunch of hits but they were mostly by four players.  Lou Gehrig and Earle Combs each had three hits while Mark Koenig and Bob Meusel each had two.  The only other player with a hit was Grabowski, who had a lone single.
