The Curse of Wrigley Field

July 8, 1908 at West Side Park
Cubs 6, Superbas 3  (42-27)

The Cubs bounced back from a two game losing streak as they finally put together a win in front of their home town fans.  Sol Hofman led the way with a big day at the plate.  He went two for four with a double, a homerun and two runs. 

Ed Reulbach threw a great game until he loaded the bases with walks in the eighth inning.  He gave up two runs in 7 1/3 innings while Three Finger Brown was called in to get the Cubs out of the jam in the eighth inning.
