Phils Win 2 in a Row, Destroy Cubs 18-2

Granny Hamner had 4 hits and 3 RBI as the Chicago Cubs were badly beaten by the Philadelphia Phillies, 18 to 2. Hamner had a big day at the plate. He banged out a single in the 1st inning, tripled bringing in two baserunners in the 3rd inning, laced a one-base hit resulting in a run in the 4th inning and ripped a base-knock in the 6th inning. Philadelphia bats were very productive in the 3rd inning when they had 5 runs on 5 hits and the 4th inning when they had 5 runs on 5 hits. Philadelphia had many opportunities throughout the game and scored in 6 separate innings. Russ Meyer(2-3) allowed 2 runs in 7 innings, and picked up the victory. Walt Dubiel(2-2) suffered the loss. He was unable to control the Philadelphia offense and allowed 7 hits and 4 walks in 2 innings.
