...ground in front of him, bounced past, rolled toward the fence. Batter Gehrig reached third base on a hit normally good for only one base; fielder Paul Waner had started Pittsburgh on the road to ruin.

No one scored until the third inning, when a speck dropped into the leftfield bleachers and Ruth jogged around the bases pouting because he was all alone. Then Koenig fumbled, Meusel muffed, and the Cardinals scored thrice. In the sixth, New York squeaked in its second run and in the seventh filled the bases with two out.
