Another fairly low-scoring contest and another one-run decision.  For a change, the Cardinals were in control -- most of the way....
 
St. Louis took a 1-0 lead in the second against Joe Dobson when Dom Dimaggio threw the ball away after Granny Hamner's double, and Barney McCosky scored.  Stan Musial's RBI single made it 2-0 an inning later.
 
The only blemish on Howie Pollet's record came in his final inning of work (the 6th) when a leadoff single and walk were followed by a pair of groundouts, the second of the two plating Johnny Pesky and making the score 2-1.
 
The Cards retaliated in the 8th with a pair of singles and an RBI double by Musial.  Slaughter was IW'd to load the bases with 2 outs, but as in previous games McCosky couldn't come through.  That would be costly.
 
The score remained 3-1 and closer Ted Wilks took over for the bottom of the 9th.  He got the first out, but a pair of pinch hitters helped save the day for Boston after Dimaggio singled: Paul Lehner doubled Dimaggio home and George Shuba tied the game with a single on Wilks' next pitch.  Wilks got a K and a popout to end the frame, but the damage had been done.
 
Neither side threatened in the 10th, but for the second time in the series, St. Louis's Bill Baker tripled with 2 outs in the late innings (actually this one was a double + an error on Cliff Mapes).  But there he stayed and Ken Heintzelman faced the Red Sox in the bottom of the 11th. 
 
After one out, Dimaggio walked and raced home on a Sal Yvars double to end it.  Final score: 4-3 in 11, and the Sox have a commanding 3-0 lead in the series, which resumes tomorrow when Harry Brecheen takes on Blix Donnelly.
