Cubs Sneak Past Dodgers, 9-8
The Chicago Cubs defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers, 9-8. Right Fielder Wally Moses deserved a large share of the credit. Moses went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Cubs. Brooklyn now is 6-8.

Batting in the bottom of the ninth, 28-year old third baseman Peanuts Lowrey had a real shot to win the game. Brooklyn pitcher Al Gerheauser was determined not to let it happen. But with one out, Lowrey hit a run-scoring single. The Cubs had a walk-off triumph.

"This place sure got loud," said Charlie Grimm, the Chicago manager.
