The two-run lead that Detroit took into the bottom of the ninth inning of
Game One proved to be its biggest of the Series. And it was short-lived, as
Chicago--after Frank Chance's leadoff single--took advantage of a hit batsman,
a fumble at third base, and a dropped third strike to even the score. Three
scoreless extra innings later, darkness ended the game in a 3-3 tie.
The Tigers pitched well enough in the Series. Wild Bill Donovan and
George Mullin, who provided more than 80 percent of Detroit's pitching,
allowed only four earned runs each for a combined 1.89 ERA. But Cub pitchers
gave up only four earned runs as a team, suffocating the Tigers with a team
ERA of 0.75. And while Tiger fielders made one less error than the Cubs,
their misplays proved more costly, permitting eight unearned runs to the Cubs'
two.
Detroit's three-run eighth in the opener provided half of their Series
scoring. Nine Tiger hits in Game Two produced only one run, while the Cubs
bunched six of their nine hits into two innings for three runs and the Series'
first win. In Games Three and Four, while the Tigers were twice again limited
to a single run, the Cubs increased their run production to five and six,
clustering 40 percent of their hits into two three-run innings, one in each
game. Mordecai (Three Finger) Brown wrapped up the Series for Chicago with a
shutout, as his Cubs blended a hit in each of the first two innings with three
stolen bases and a Tiger error for the game's only two runs.
Detroit's twenty-year-old Ty Cobb, the American League batting, RBI, and
stolen base leader in his first full big league season, hit an anemic .200 in
the World Series, stealing no bases and driving in no Tiger runs. If there
was an offensive hero, it was Cub centerfielder Jimmy Slagle. At age
thirty-four, nearing the end of a ten-year major league career, he led both
clubs with four RBIs (nearly quadruple his season's per-game output) and six
stolen bases.
