September 24, 1926 at the Polo Grounds

Cardinals 6, Giants 4  (89-63)

It was definitely a day to celebrate as the Cardinals clinched their first ever National League pennant.  Flint Rhem was shelled in the first inning for three runs but the Cardinals got the bats going and Bill Sherdel did some quality relief pitching.  The big inning for the Cards was the third inning, in which they scored five runs to pen the game up.

Billy Southworth homered in the win and Tommy Thevenow had three hits and a run.
