Baltimore captured its third consecutive pennant and for the second year
in a row faced runner-up Cleveland in the Temple Cup games. But this time the
Orioles emerged triumphant--with a sweep in which their margin of victory was
never less than four runs.
Aces Bill Hoffer of Baltimore and the Spiders' Cy Young faced each other
in the opener, in Baltimore. Hoffer walked four men, but gave up only five
hits while the Orioles bombarded Young for thirteen. When the game ended,
Hoffer and Baltimore had a 7-1 win.
Bobby Wallace (who had not yet discovered his role at shortstop that
would propel him into the Hall of Fame) pitched for Cleveland in Game Two. He
lost the game in the first inning when two Spider errors, a hit batsman, three
hits, and a steal of home put four Baltimore runs on the board. The Orioles
added two runs in the third and another in the fifth, while their promising
twenty-year-old pitcher Joe Corbett held the Spiders to two runs on seven
hits.
The Orioles' Hoffer gave up ten hits to Cleveland in Game Three--two
more than the Birds made off Spider Nig Cuppy. But all the hits off Hoffer
were singles, and he walked only one. Half of Cleveland's hits went toward
producing just two runs. Their second run tied the score in the fifth inning,
but in the sixth Baltimore regained the lead as John McGraw singled, stole
second, took third on an error, and came home on an outfield fly. In the
eighth the Orioles bunched four of their eight hits for three insurance runs.
The Series moved to Cleveland for the fourth game. Young Joe Corbett was
again sent into the box for Baltimore, this time to face Nig Cuppy. For six
innings the game was a scoreless duel. Baltimore hit safely in every inning
but the second, but failed to score until the seventh, when Joe Kelley's
double and Jack Doyle's single scored the only run they would need. But the
Orioles added a second run in that inning and three more in the eighth. Two
of the four Cleveland hits against Corbett put men on base in the eighth
inning, and Corbett walked two in the ninth to raise Cleveland's hopes. But
no Spider scored, and with the 5-0 win the Orioles were world champions at
last.
