Pitching Arms Come Through For Chicago

Two good teams from the very same era faced off against each other and the results were some very competitive baseball. The Senators took a 2 games to one lead in the series before a Riggs Stevenson homer helped the Cubs tie the series. Chicago then pitched well behind Sherrif Blake and Guy Bush to win the next two games and wrap up the series at Griffith Stadium. Bush also won a classic game against Sad Sam Jones 1-0 in game 2.
