Athletics Hand New York 5-4 Loss
Athletics first baseman Les Fleming left his imprint on his team's 5-4 win over the New York Yankees. Fleming was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times for Philadelphia in the contest. Philadelphia pitcher Tex Hughson got the win, upping his record to 6-3. Dutch Leonard got the loss. The Athletics, now 22-23, know that wins in May count the same as wins in September.

Skeeter Newsome had a key at-bat with no one out in the top of the ninth for Philadelphia. With runners on 1st and 3rd and the Athletics leading 4-2, he grounded out, driving in 1 run.

"We were the better team," crowed Fleming.
