Joe Coleman allowed only three hits and set down 20 straight batters during one stretch of his performance while pitching the Senators to a 10-0 victory over the Tigers. Rick Reichardt smashed a two-run homer in the first inning and also scored three more times after rapping a pair of doubles and being hit by a pitch. [The Sporting News]
