Boston second baseman Birdie Cree was a significant contributor in his team's 4-1 triumph over the St. Louis Cardinals. He went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for Boston. Boston, at 71-43, is 7½ games up in the NL.

Cree hit a 3-run home run in the bottom of the third to help the Boston cause. The home run, which was hit off Rube Benton, allowed Boston to take a 4-1 lead.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Boston manager Frank Selee.
