Paul Derringer and Roy Parmalee battled each other in a pitcher’s duel for 5 innings, as the St. Louis Cardinals topped the New York Giants 4-3 to even the series and force Game 5. Derringer struck out the side in the 3rd, but allowed 3 straight singles to lead off the 4th as the Giants took a 1-0 lead. But poor baserunning saved the Cardinals from worse. Lefty O’Doul hit a long flyball to the gap, but George Watkins was able to make a great catch. Watkins threw out Mel Ott trying to go to 3rd, and Sparky Adams threw to 2nd to get Travis Jackson for a triple-play. The Cardinals carried the momentum into the 6th, when Chick Hafey hit a 2-run home run to put St. Louis up 3-1. A Charlie Gelbert error led to 2 unearned runs in the 7th as the Giants tied it up. It was Hafey who came through again in the 8th with a clutch RBI single with 2 outs to give the Cardinals the lead. The GIants threated in the 9th when George Watkins doubled with one out, but Derringer struck out pinch-hitters Harry Danning and Phil Weintraub to end the game. The teams will have a day off as they travel back to St. Louis for Game 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
