Washington starter Monte Weaver loaded the bases in the 1st inning with two outs, but escaped allowing just one run. That summed up the frustration in Game 3 for the New York Yankees, as they left 15 runners on base. The Senators put up a big 4th inning against Atley Donald, starting with a bases-loaded walk by Ossie Blueage. Buddy Myer hit a 2-run double a few batters later and scored on Heinie Manush’s triple to give Washington a 6-1 lead. But the Yankees weren’t done. Facing the sweep, Donald retired the next 11 batters he faced, and New York chipped away at Weaver and the lead. Babe Dahlgren hit a 2-run single after Joe Cronin’s 2-out error to make it 6-4, and Charlie Keller had another 2-out RBI in the 8th to cut the lead to one. Washington reliever Alex McColl walked Frankie Crosetti and George Selkirk with 2 outs in the 9th, but Red Rolfe flew out to Manush to end the game. Joe DiMaggio was 1 for 4 in the game, and is only hitting .167 so far in the Tournament. Myer finished 2 for 4. The loss drops the top-seeded Yankees down to the Loser’s Bracket as Washington waits for the winner of the 1931 Athletics and 1935 Tigers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
