This Day in Braves History: September 1st

1931: Giants rookie Jim Mooney notches his fourth win since being called up three weeks ago‚ beating the Braves, 4-0. It is his second shutout.

1933: In the first of two games with the Braves‚ Carl Hubbell pitches 10 innings and drives in the winning run for a 2-0 win. He doesn’t walk a batter and never goes as deep as a 3-2 count on any hitter‚ holding the Braves to just four hits. It is his 20th win and his 10th shutout of the year. Five of the shutouts are 1-0‚ a National League record. Fred Frankhouse is the hard-luck loser‚ when his mates make two errors in the 10th.
