Cubs defeat Dodgers 6-2

Today in front of a packed house at Ebbets Field, the Chicago Cubs defeated the hometown Dodgers, 6-2.  Chuck Klein and Kiki Cuyler hit home runs for Chicago, and Roy Joiner pitched 8 strong innings to get the win.  Charlie Grimm was 3-for-4 with 3 RBI's.

The Cubs jumped out to a 2-0 lead with 2 runs in the 2nd inning.  Babe Herman led off with a single, then Kiki Cuyler doubled.  With runners on 2nd and 3rd, Gabby Harnett struck out.  But Charlie Grimm hit a big 2-run single to put them on the board.  Chicago left 2 on base that inning.  Then, in the 3rd inning, Chicago scored 2 more.  Woody English flied out, then Chuck Klein hit a solo home run.  After a fly out from Babe Herman, Kiki Cuyler hit a home run of his own.  

Ray Berres hit a 2-run double with 2 outs in the 4th to account for Brooklyn's only runs.  The Dodgers left 10 men on base, so they had some traffic on the base paths but just couldn't get it done.
