At Shibe Park, the Philadelphia Athletics and Detroit Tigers play 24 innings and can not come up with a winner as the game was deadlocked 1-1 when the game was called due to darkness. At the time, no game that began during the daytime could turn on the lights due to a major league rule. The teams would play a doubleheader the following day, with Detroit winning the opener 6-1 and losing the second game 2-1.
