When the stakes were high, Hampton Bunker raised his game to match.

The right-handed Bunker turned in a stellar performance in Game 2 of the World Series today, pitching a 9-inning, complete-game shutout to lead the St. Louis Explorers to victory. He allowed 6 hits and struck out 2. The win gave St. Louis a 2-0 lead over the Brooklyn Bluebirds in the best-of-7 series.

St. Louis first baseman Flip Crawford helped the Explorers go up, 2-1, in the top of the third inning. With the game tied, Crawford hit a run-scoring single off Brooklyn pitcher Hermann Logan.

"I'm not out here to win a beauty contest," said Crawford. "Obviously."

Game 3 is scheduled for Friday, October 7th, 1921 in St. Louis. The scheduled starters for the game are Eli Bostater for Brooklyn and Charley Oaks for St. Louis.
