The Pittsburgh Oilers took on the Detroit Giants at Oilers Ballpark.

Pittsburgh Oilers starter John Oxenden pitched his team past the Detroit Giants, 6-2. Detroit's current losing streak is now 6 games.

Horace Pimlott had a big 2-run double for the Oilers in the bottom of the third inning. With Pittsburgh leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Sid Jobling, the 15th overall pick in the 1915 draft, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 18th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Oilers ahead, 4-0.

"We didn't play well enough to win," said Detroit skipper Cecil Hunter.
