Monte Weaver took a shutout into the 8th as the 1933 Washington Senators won Game 3 of the series with the 1939 New York Yankees 3-2 to take a 2-1 series lead. Fred Schulte hit a 2-run double in the 4th and Goose Goslin added an insurance run with a single in the 5th against Atley Donald. Meanwhile, the Yankees offense couldn’t close the deal. They loaded the bases with one out in the 1st inning, but couldn’t score. They had runners on the corners with one out in the 5th and couldn’t score. Weaver worked out of jams to carry a shutout into the 8th. That’s when New York loaded the bases again, this time with nobody out. Weaver induced 3 straight grounders, and the Yankees scored 2 runs to give them a shot. But Jack Russell closed the door with a perfect 9th inning for his 4th save of the Tournament. The Yankees will need to win the next two games to avoid elimination.
