1937 – The Giants take a Labor Day pair from the Phillies‚ winning 6 – 2 and 9 – 3‚ and move 3 games ahead of the Cubs‚ who split with the Reds‚ losing 7 – 3 and winning 2 – 1. Reds pitcher Lee Grissom allows just one hit in the nitecap but loses. Phil Cavarretta’s leadoff double in the 8th‚ a fly ball that Hub Walker overruns‚ an error and a botched sacrifice bunt load the bases. A wild pitch and a sacrifice fly win it for Curt Davis‚ breaking the Cubs’ 5-game losing streak.
