...pitching of Philadelphia's George Earnshaw who allowed St. Louis two hits in the fourth game...
Considering the accurate predictions I have made the last two days I feel positive that the feeling I have had throughout the World Series--namely, that the Cardinals would win--will come true. Burleigh Grimes should pitch a 3 to 1 victory over Earnshaw today, thus breaking the American League spell...
...handicapped by an injury to hardhitting Centre-fielder George William ("Mule") Haas. They still have a powerful offense, headed by Catcher Gordon Stanley ("Mickey") Cochrane, First-baseman James Emory ("Jimmy") Foxx, Outfielder Aloysius ("Al") Simmons, and the best pitching staff in either league.

Pitcher Grove tied another American League record in mid-season by winning 16 games...

George Earnshaw. Craftily, Mack did not start with either Grove or Walberg, but began the series with his old spitballer Howard Ehmke. This year Walberg has not come up to his past standard and old Ehmke has been scouting instead of pitching. Manager Mack, sorely needing a good relief pitcher such as the Cards have in Rhem, Bell, Lindsey, Grabowski, is expected...
