Box Score Resurfaces: Bees Shut Out Cubs, 5-0, in 1940
Original: MLB Gameday: Bees 5, Cubs 0 Final Score (07/13/1940)
A final score from July 13, 1940 shows the Boston Bees defeating the Chicago Cubs 5-0. The Bees were the name used by the Boston Braves franchise from 1938 to 1940, so the result predates modern team names. Fans of baseball history are being reminded of that unusual era of the franchise's identity through the archived box score.
Why now: Baseball fans are revisiting a historical box score featuring the short-lived Boston Bees name from 1940.
