This Day in Baseball: “Bullet” Joe Bush Dominates Chicago

By Precious Sanders @pdsanders99

In a game against the White Sox on May 28, 1918, Boston pitcher “Bullet” Joe Bush threw a one-hitter and drove in the lone run in the Red Sox’s victory at Fenway Park. Happy Felsch was the only Chicago player to manage a hit off the Boston right-hander.
