STEINFELDT DELIVERS FOR WHITE SOX IN A PITCHER’S DUEL
Harry Steinfeldt died on August 17, 1914, of a cerebral hemorrhage, just shy of his 37th birthday.
Harry Steinfeldt of the Cubs pulled a pitch down the right field line for a 2 out 2-run triple in the bottom of the 6th inning to give the Cubs the close 2-1 victory.
Both pitchers brought their A games as they each gave up just 3 hits, and combined for 15 strikeouts. Ed Walsh reached to lead off the 3rd inning when centerfielder Solly Hoffman dropped an easy fly ball. A walk and an infield single loaded the bases with 2 outs, but the Cub defense faltered again when Joe Tinker bobbled an inning ending groundball, allowing Walsh to score the only White Sox run of the game.
The White Sox had runners on base in the 5th, 8th and 9th inning, but catcher Johnny Kling gunned down all 3 runners trying to steal.
The White Sox need to win 4 straight to match their upset in 1906. I don’t think it’s going to happen.
