The Philadelphia A's, who scored 24 runs in a doubleheader split on Saturday, didn't let Sunday's off day cool off their bats as they trounced the Tigers, 9-3 on Monday. The win gave the A's a split in their four-game series in Detroit. Wally Moses had three RBI on three hits and Buck Ross pitched a complete game. For the Tigers, Birdie Tebbetts went 2-for-3, raising his average to .453. The A's 1-3 hitters Lou Finney, Moses and Bill Werber were a combined 9-for-15 with four RBI.


Moses' two-run double in the 8th inning helped salt the game for Philadelphia
