St. Louis rode a good effort from starter Rube Benton to beat the New York Giants at Robison Field. The final score was 2-1. The win gives St. Louis a season record of 58-43.

When he came to bat in the bottom of the ninth, Finners Quinlan had a chance to end it. New York pitcher Bob Groom had other ideas. But with one out, Quinlan hit a sacrifice fly. The Cardinals had the win.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Benton said.
