Lon Warneke (pictured) allowed only 2 hits while blanking St. Louis as the Chicago Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals by a score of 2 to 0. Warneke (3-0) was virtually untouchable. He didn't give up much, just 2 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings lowering his ERA to 0.67. The pitchers took over after the 2nd inning as neither team was able to score again. Tex Carleton (0-2) was given the loss. He pitched 7 innings, giving up 7 hits and 2 walks.
Warneke was obviously very pleased with his performance in the aftermath of the game, 'It was just one of those games where everything worked. My arm felt great, heck, I could have pitched another two or three innings. I only hope that I can do it again next time out!'
