doubled. After an out was recorded, Dark came to the plate and ripped a
base-hit resulting in a run. Ed Fitz Gerald then ripped a base-knock. After
another out, Eddie Lopat then threw a high and inside pitch that got by the
catcher; it was ruled a passed ball. Vern Bickford stepped into the box and
laced a single driving home another two teammates. New York provided plenty
of action in the 3rd inning which saw them plate 5 runs on 5 hits. New York
