Chick Hafey had two key hits and drove in 3 runs as the 1931 St. Louis Cardinals held off the 1935 Chicago Cubs to even their series at one game each. The Cubs took advantage of a wild Bill Hallahan, who walked 8, to score runs in the 2nd and 3rd. Hafey responded with a 2-run single in the 4th to tie things up. The Cubs pulled ahead again in the 5th thanks to the 2nd unearned run of the day, but Hafey once again tied the score, this time with a solo home run in the 6th. Augie Galan had an RBI single in the bottom of the inning to give the Cubs back the lead, but the Cardinals responded again. Frankie Frisch hit an RBI double in the 7th to tie it up. Charlie Gelbert’s sacrifice fly in the 8th gave them the lead for good. The Cubs loaded the bases in the bottom of the 9th thanks to two more Hallahan walks, but Jim Lindsey got Phil Cavaretta to ground out to end the game and give the Cardinals a 5-4 win. Lon Warneke allowed 5 runs on 14 hits for the Cubs, falling to 1-2 in the Tournament. Hallahan walked 8, but allowed just 7 hits in 8 2/3 innings. The series now heads to St. Louis.
