Eisenstat, big bats easily handle Senators

TIGERS 11, Washington 1
at Washington, DC

DET    000 032 330 = 11-9-1
WAS   000 000 001 = 1-9-0
WP- Eisenstat (11-4); LP- Appleton
HR- Greenberg, DET (41; 7th inning; 1 on, 1 out)

The Tigers used some wildness from Senators pitching and timely hitting to more than back Harry Eisenstat's complete game. Washington hurlers walked 10 Tigers, including five in the eighth inning alone. Eisenstat scattered nine hits as the Tigers didn't need to go to the bullpen for the fifth straight game. The Tigers scored all their runs between the fifth and eighth innings. Hank Greenberg clubbed his 41st home run, and he and Mark Christman each had three RBI. The Tigers are 10-3 in their past 13 games.

TIGERS: 63-54; Home: 30-29; Away: 33-25


Harry Eisenstat is all smiles after allowing just one run (unearned) in the Tigers' 11-1 crushing of the Senators in Washington
