| May 20, 1934 Dizzy Dean (pictured) outdueled Carl Hubbell leading the Cardinals to a 2-1 victory over the  Giants. In a battle between the top 2 teams in the NL, Dean (6-2) was outstanding on the mound, carrying a no-hitter into the 8th inning! (I was managing the Giants) In the 8th, Blondy Ryan singled with one out to break up the no-hit bid. St. Louis scored twice off Hubbell in the 6th and that was all Dean needed to pick up his 6th win of the season and increasing the 1st place Cardinals lead to 2.5 games over the Giants. |

Dizzy Dean took a no-hitter into the 8th inning as the St. Louis Cardinals
topped the New York Giants by a score of 2 to 1 at Polo Grounds.
Dean(6-2) pitched one of his finer games as he simply was too much for the New
York batters. He didn't allow much, just 3 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings
lowering his ERA from 2.36 to 2.06. The right-handed Dean lost his no-hit
bid when Blondy Ryan singled with one out in the 8th inning. The game was a
scoreless duel until the 6th inning.
Carl Hubbell(5-2) took the loss. Frankie Frisch was very impressed with his
pitcher, Dean, 'He had unusually good pitch placement this afternoon. It was
almost unfair - but a beautiful game to watch from where I sat'
