Well, You Know We Can't Win 'Em
All Error Did It
Of course we could say, "If Red
Corriden hadn't done this and if Red
Corriden hadn't done that," but prob
ably the best way to handle that de
feat the Pittsburgh bunch handed the
Cubs is to simply say, "Well, we can't
win 'em alL"
But even then, we can't get away
from the fact that if the Cubs' little
shortstop hadn't thrown the ball wild
past Bresnahan, when the bases were
loaded, things might have been dif
ferent Red's heave let three runs
sail home, where a perfect throw to ,
the plate would probably have led to
a double killing.

ney retired. Then Hargrave took a
turn. Smith was going so well that
he was pulled out to save for a future
game. Hageman finished for th
Cuba
