Game 4 - "Jack be Nimble"



GAME 4
French vs Pennock
Cubs 10, Yankees 8


In a wild and wooly game where that saw no fewer than 5 lead changes exchanged the Cubbies outlasted a depleted Bomber pen to even up the series.  With Herb Pennock getting knocked out of the box after 2 1/3 innings the Yankee pen was tapped 4 times as if they were a 2015 pen.  None of New York’s boys were capable of holding down the relentless Cubbies.  In contrast Jack Russell pitched 4 innings of 1 run ball in relief of putrid Cub starter Larry French with Bob Logan getting a scoreless 9th inning save.  Both teams combined for 18 runs on 28 hits, yet no one hit a homer. 
Series tied 2-2
