Grimes allowed just 4 hits and a run in a complete game 6-1 victory over the 1931 Philadelphia Athletics that sends the series to a deciding Game 7. The lone Athletics run came on Mickey Cochrane&#8217;s 5th home run of the Tournament. Pepper Martin tripled off Rube Walberg for the 1st Cardinals run. Ripper Collins followed with an RBI single to give St. Louis an early 2-0 lead. Chick Hafey hit is 8th homer of the Tournament, a solo shot in the 4th to extend the lead to 3-0. Martin drove in Jim Bottomley with another RBI single in the 6th, and singled and scored one of two Cardinals runs in the 8th. Overall, Walberg allowed 12 hits in 8 innings. Martin finished 4 for 4 for St. Louis, who have tied the Series at 3. Tomorrow will decide who the best team of the 1930s truly is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/STB30s\/Scoresheets\/10-22-2023_STL_PHA.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"'31 Cardinals @ '31 Athletics - 10\/22\/23\">&#8217;31 Cardinals @ &#8217;31 Athletics &#8211; 10\/22\/23<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Burleigh Grimes came through again when the 1931 St. Louis Cardinals needed him most.
