Third baseman Frank Baker and catcher Wally Schang drove in more than 60
percent of the Athletics' runs, as Philadelphia dispatched the Giants in five
games. Chief Bender led A's pitchers with two wins, and rookie Bullet Joe
Bush hurled a nifty five-hitter in Game Three, but the Series highlights were
two duels between the A's Eddie Plank and the Giant's Christy Mathewson. The
A's heavy hitting made Bender's wins possible and Bush's win easy, but
pitching dominated the Plank-Matty games.
Bender yielded 11 hits in the opener, as did the Giants' pitchers. But
five of the game's six extra-base hits belonged to the A's--including Baker's
two-run homer and triples by Schang and Eddie Collins--and Bender emerged
victorious. In Game Two, Plank and Mathewson pitched shutout ball through
nine innings, but in the top of the tenth Matty himself singled in the game's
first run and scored the second. Taking a 3-0 lead into the bottom of the
inning, he set the A's down in order for New York's only Series win.
In Game Three, Schang's solo homer and Collins' three hits (including
his second Series triple) and three RBIs led a 12-hit A's attack which, with
Bush's fine pitching, put Philadelphia back into the Series lead. Bender won
again in Game Four, shutting out the Giants through six innings as his A's
scored six runs. But in the seventh, New York's Fred Merkle homered for three
runs, and a single, double, and triple in the eighth brought in two more Giant
runs. With his lead cut to a single run, Bender bore down in the ninth and
retired the side in order.
Plank avenged his earlier loss with a brilliant two-hitter in Game Five,
facing the minimum three batters in eight of the nine innings. (His own error
in the fifth--a dropped pop-up--led to the Giants' only run.) Mathewson
pitched well, too, yielding only six singles. But four of them came in the
first and third innings, combining with two sacrifice flies and an error for
three runs. Only one Athletic batter reached base in the final six innings,
but with Plank pitching as he was, the game and the title were in
Philadelphia's pocket.
