The first game of the 1915 Presidents Cup Series was a close back and forth affair until the bottom of the 8th inning, when the Grays unleashed a flurry of hits that regained them the lead after losing it in the 7th.

Heinrich Crews, the Grays catcher, has a very interesting game. He came up to bat four times with two outs by the start of the 8th inning and failed each team, leaving a whopping 7 runners on base himself.

But in the bottom of the 8th, he came up once again with two outs and the bases loaded and this time he came through. He ripped a line drive over the first baseman's head that rolled around the right field corner. All three runners scored, giving him the most RBIs for the game.
