Pirates 3, Cardinals 2 (6-4)
The Cardinals couldn’t come back from Pie Traynor’s three run in the park homer in the first inning. Syl Johnson threw seven shutout innings to close out the game but unfortunately it wasn’t enough and he took the loss.
Rogers Hornsby tripled and scored on Jim Bottomley’s double in the bottom of the sixth. Bottomley later scored to cut the deficit down to a single run, but that was all the scoring that the Cards could manage.
