(Game called at end of eighth, darkness)
As the divided season of 1892 was not repeated, no "world series" was
held in 1893. But in 1894 Pittsburgh sportsman William C. Temple offered an
elegant trophy to the winner of a series between the NL's first- and
second-place finishers. For four years the Temple Cup games determined the
world championship. In this first matchup, second-place New York swept the
feisty pennant-winning Orioles.
Game One, in Baltimore, was a shutout through four innings as New York's
Amos Rusie and Baltimore's Duke Esper held their opponents at bay. But Giant
George Van Haltren tripled in the fifth inning and scored the game's first run
on a fly to left. The Giants also scored single runs in the sixth, seventh,
and eighth innings, while Rusie continued his shutout pitching through the
eighth. In the ninth Oriole John McGraw singled, and he came around on a
sacrifice, stolen base, and single to spoil the shutout. But the Oriole
effort was too little to deprive Rusie of his win.
Some two hundred policemen patrolled the second game the next day to
protect the umpires and New York's players and fans from the abusive Orioles
and the crowd in the stands whom the Oriole players egged on. Baltimore
scored first with two runs in the second and, after losing and regaining the
lead, completed the eighth inning tied 5-5. But in the top of the ninth, the
Giants put together their second four-run inning of the game. Once again the
Orioles came up with a run in the last of the ninth, but once again came up
short.
More than 22,000 spectators showed up for Game Three as the Series
shifted to New York--a huge crowd for that era, even for a Saturday. As in
Game One, the Giants' Amos Rusie hurled a 4-1 victory. New York broke a 1-1
tie with a run in the fifth on a throwing error and a ground out, and scored
the game's final runs an inning later. Threatening weather held down
attendance at Game Four to about 12,000. Baltimore jumped to a quick lead
with two runs in the top of the first, but New York pitcher Jouett Meekin held
the Orioles to just one run after that as the Giants piled up runs for a 16-3
advantage by the time darkness forced an end to play after eight innings.
Meekin, in winning his second game of the Series, connected for three hits
himself--half as many as he permitted the whole Oriole team.
