The Curse of Wrigley Field

Sense and Sensibility download July 9, 1908 at West Side Park

Cubs 4, Superbas 3  (43-27)

The Cubs stormed back in this one and scored two runs in the ninth and one run in the tenth to win it.  Jack Pfiester threw the first nine innings before he gave way to Three Finger Brown who pitched the tenth inning.  Brown picked up the win because of the Cubs exploits in extra frames.

Heinie Zimmerman led off the tenth with a single and he moved to second base on Harry Steinfeldt’s sacrafice.  Zimmerman then moved to third on a wild pitch Pat Moran then belted a fly ball deep enough to bring home Zimmerman for the game winner.
