The Chicago Cubs defeated Nashville
here Yesterday 4 to 2. For eight in
nings the local pitchers held the Cubs
to 3 hits and no runs, but a ninth in

Good. batting for Brldwell, delivered
a three Dagger with the bases full,

succeeded him, held the locals hitless.
Beck and Fucich pitched the first seven
innings for Nashville and held the Cubs
to three hits and no runs. Hendee was
