inning in the first game, Babe Ruth pinch hit for the pitcher Russell, and
struck out. The Orioles did not score
and lost the game.
In the second game, Babe started
in right field leading off. This was his first appearance as a position player rather than a pitcher or a pinch hitter. He had one
single in four at bats – it was only one of two base hits for the Orioles in a
1-0 loss. Babe had one put out as a
fielder.
Losing both games of the double header, the Orioles overall season record fell to 16-11.
