Mahaffey walked 6 and hit two batters, but the only run he allowed was unearned, as the Philadelphia defense helped him by turning four double plays. Washington lead-off hitter, Buddy Myer was the 2nd hit-by-pitch victim. This one, in the 7th with one out, led to both benches clearing. When order was restored, Myer and Mahaffey were ejected. Earl Whitehill allowed 4 hits and walked one with 3 outs in the 3rd as the Athletics scored 3 of their runs to take a lead they wouldn&#8217;t give up. Al Simmons was an offensive standout, going 3 for 3 with a walk. Mule Haas was 2 for 4 with 2 RBI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/STB30s\/Scoresheets\/09-15-2023_WSH_PHA.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"'33 Senators @ '31 Athletics - 9\/15\/23\">&#8217;33 Senators @ &#8217;31 Athletics &#8211; 9\/15\/23<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roy Mahaffey allowed just 3 hits in 6 1\/3 innings as the 1931 Philadelphia Athletics topped the 1933 Washington Nationals 6-2 to take the 1st game of their series.
