Cardinals Post 4-3 Win Over Chicago
St. Louis starter Rube Benton pitched effectively against the Chicago Cubs at West Side Park. The left-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. The Cardinals bumped their record to 39-26 with this win.

Braggo Roth, who leads the NL in triples with 11, aided the St. Louis cause with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the seventh. For the game, the third baseman went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

Roth attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
