Cards Take Two Game Lead in Series! Haines throws three brilliant innings to preserve narrow St. Louis victory; Bridges to Start in St. Louis today as Tigers try to rallyThe Tigers were unable to hold a one run leading after seven innings today, as St. Louis rallied for two in the 8th to overcome the Tigers slim lead and take a two game lead in the World Series.
Although Tiger hurler Schoolboy Rowe had a good day, it was not enough as the Tigers managed only three runs on the afternoon.
Things don't get any easier today as the Tigers face Paul Dean (16-9, 3.48), the NL Rookie of the Year and younger brother of Cardinal Ace Dizzy Dean. Tommy Bridges (19-15, 3.29) will take the mound for Detroit.
Rip Collins again led the St. Louis attack. He had two doubles, a sacrifice and a walk for the Red Birds. Goose Goslin led the Detroit club with three hits. The key for St. Louis was their bullpen, which shut down Detroit after starter Bill Hallahan yielded three runs. The heaviest burden was on Jesse Haines, the NL relief pitcher of the year, who yielded only two hits in three innings to keep St. Louis in the game until Collins and the offense could push across the game winning runs.
