Burleigh Grimes and the Cardinals took a 3-0 lead into the 6th thanks in part to a 2-run home run by Pepper Martin, but they nearly blew it thanks to poor fielding. Errors by infielders Sparky Adams, Charlie Gelbert, and Jake Flowers led to two unearned runs in the inning. New York slugger Mel Ott hit a 2-run homer in the 8th to give the Giants the lead. The Cardinals got one back in the bottom of the 8th against starter Hal Schumacher, but reliever Jim Bowman prevented any more that inning. With 2 out in the 9th, George Watkins hit a triple to drive in pinch-hitter Taylor Douthit to tie the game. Cardinals reliever Jim Lindsey walked three straigtht to load the bases in the 10th, but escaped without allowing a run. In the Cardinals half, Jim Bottomley walked to bring up Chick Hafey. Hafey took the 1st pitch just over the wall for the walkoff 2-run shot to give the Cardinals a 7-5 win. The teams are now tied at a game a piece and will head to New York for the next two games in the best-of-five series. Frankie Frisch is expected to miss around a week after a collision with Charlie Gelbert in the 4th.
