The 1934 Chicago Cubs finished third in the NL with a 86-65 record. Outfielders Babe Herman, Kiki Cuyler and Chuck Klein, along with Catcher Gabby Hartnett, provided plenty of offense. Lon Warneke and Bill Lee anchored a strong starting rotation. Bud Tinning provided strong relief, but was the only real Chicago reliever. Charlie Grimm's Cubs had won the pennant only two years before, and would win again the next year (1935) and in 1938.
