Baltimore, repeating as NL pennant winner, returned to Temple Cup play
against new runner-up Cleveland. The first 4 1/2 innings of the
opener--played in Cleveland--featured a scoreless duel between Baltimore
veteran John "Sadie" McMahon and the Spiders' great Cy Young. After Cleveland
scored the game's first run in the last of the fifth, the teams traded runs
and the lead, completing the eighth inning tied 3-3. In the top of the ninth,
doubles by Wilbert Robinson and John McGraw restored the edge to Baltimore.
But in the bottom of the inning, four straight Spider hits pushed across the
tying run and filled the bases. One runner was forced at home for the first
out, but a grounder that just missed being a double-play ball drove in the
winning Cleveland run.
The next three games were not so closely contested. A large and
enthusiastic Cleveland crowd watched its Spiders jump on Baltimore for three
runs in the bottom of the first inning of Game Two and coast to a 7-2 win
behind the strong pitching of Nig Cuppy, who held the Orioles to five singles.
Cleveland repeated itself in Game Three, again exploding for three runs in the
bottom of the first on the way to a seven-run total. Cy Young was just as
effective in the box as Cuppy had been, scattering four hits over seven
shutout innings before Baltimore put together three singles in the eighth for
their only run.
When the teams shifted to Baltimore for Game Four, the Orioles sprang to
life. While their pitcher Duke Esper strangled the Spiders on just five
singles--only two Cleveland runners advanced as far as second base--Oriole
batters tagged Nig Cuppy for five runs and their first Temple Cup win in two
years of trying.
It proved to be their only win of the Series. The next day, in the first
close struggle since the opener, Cy Young and Baltimore's rookie ace Bill
Hoffer dueled scorelessly through six innings. But in the top of the seventh,
Young doubled to start what became a three-run rally, and an inning later the
Spiders scored twice more. Baltimore scored a single run in the last of the
seventh, and, with two out in the ninth, loaded the bases on two walks and a
hit batsman. A Cleveland error brought in the Orioles' second run as the
bases remained full for Steve Brodie. But despite the pleas of Baltimore
partisans to hit a homer or triple, Brodie "failed miserably" and Cleveland
copped the cup.
