Working on just two days rest, Dizzy Dean came back and defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, at Sportsman’s Park. He took a 4-2 lead into the top of the ninth, but high drama ensued as he walked Chick Hafey, then surrendered a single to Mark Koenig. His brother Paul took over and gave up two more singles and a third Cardinal run, before settling down to get the save. Dean improves to 2 and 2 in the replay.
