With a six-game winning streak intact and two straight victories over the league leaders, the Robins met the Cubs in the final game of the season between the two clubs. Homers With Two on Cards and Giants clashed in the third game of their four-game series. Coming back from the brink of defeat, the Cardinals defeated the Giants in the eighth inning Wednesday when Sunny Jim Bottomley bounced a home run off the right field tier with Adams and Frisch on base. Freddy Lindstrom's “statue of Liberty” play on Frisch’s grounder with two out in the eighth and the Giants leading 3-2, permitted Bottomley to bat and win the game, 5-3. Either blinded by the sun or momentarily stunned because he couldn't tag Adams, racing from second, Lindstrom held the ball while Frisch, who should have been the third out, reached first safely. Three games behind the Cubs and one and a half behind the Cards and Robins, the Giants now seem definitely out of the pennant chase. This team, by indifferent play, has muffed more opportunities to forge ahead in the race than any of the other three contenders. If there is any life left in the Cubs it hasn’s made its appearance in the Brooklyn series. Shut out on successive days by Ray Phelps and Adolfo Luque, the Cubs have gotten only two men as far as third base, one in each game. The situation culdn’t be worse for the Cubs. Their two best pitchers, Pat Malone and Charley Root, have been beaten. Hack Wilson, Kiki Cuyler and Riggs Stephenson are failing in the pinches. If ever there seemed to be a beaten outfit leading a pennant race this is it. Vance Probable Choice For today Wilbert Robinson had Dazzy Vance to hurl against the Cubs, while Joe McCarthy had to pick between Guy Bush and Bud Teachout, both ragged in their last efforts. At the Polo grounds left-handers were scheduled to pitch, with either Bill Walker or Carl Hubbell opposing Bill Hallahan. The Giants have beaten Hallahan in three of his four starts against them thus far.

Jimmy (Baby Face) McLarnin of Vancouver today ruled a heavy favorite to defeat A1 Singer, newly-crowned lightweight champion, in their tenround bout at the Yankee Stadium tonight.

Both were confident. Frank Bruen, general manager of Madison Square Garden, announced today that the advance sale for the fight had exceeded the $150,000 mark with indications that some 50,000 persons would be in the stadium at ringtime.
