The 1935 Chicago Cubs offense finally broke loose, scoring 12 runs against the 1931 St. Louis Cardinals and figuring out Syl Johnson to hand him his 1st loss of the Tournament. But it wasn’t easy. The Cardinals kept pressure on Charlie Root the entire game, never being more than 3 runs back at the end of any inning. St. Louis tied it in the 5th inning and scored in every inning after the 3rd. Even after allowing a 5-run 8th inning, the Cardinals scored 3 in the bottom of the inning and had the tying run at the plate in the 9th before Sparky Adams grounded into a double play. Roy Henshaw picked up his 2nd save with the 12-10 victory and sent the Cubs to Game 4 down just 2 games to 1 and ended their 4-game losing streak. Augie Galan was the star for Chicago, going 4 for 6 with a home run, 2 doubles, and 5 RBI. The teams combined for 38 hits.
