The Yankees won their fourth consecutive World Series with their second
sweep in a row. This time the victim was Cincinnati, in the Series for the
first time since their tainted triumph over the Black Sox two decades earlier.
New York had lost the power of Lou Gehrig (whose illness forced his retirement
early in the season), but in the Series rookie outfielder Charlie Keller took
up the slack. He led both clubs in batting, slugging, home runs, RBIs, hits,
and runs, and hit one of the Series' two triples. His eight runs scored
equalled those of the whole Cincinnati team.
The Yankees' Red Ruffing and Cincinnati's Paul Derringer hurled matching
four-hitters through eight innings of Game One. With the score tied 11,
Ruffing set the Reds down in order in the ninth. But in the bottom of the
ninth Keller tripled off Derringer with one away, and scored the deciding run
on catcher Bill Dickey's single.
Babe Dahlgren, Gehrig's replacement at first base, doubled in the third
and later scored the Yankees' first run in Game Two, and homered in the next
inning for New York's fourth and final run of the game. Red starter Bucky
Walters stopped the Yankees after that, but they had more than enough runs for
the win, as Monte Pearson held the Reds hitless through seven and wound up
with a two-hit shutout.
Keller provided the margin of victory with a pair of two-run homers in
the first and fifth innings of Game Three. Joe DiMaggio's two-run homer in
the third and Bill Dickey's solo shot that followed Keller's homer in the
fifth accounted for the rest of New York's runs in their 73 win.
No one scored through six innings of Game Four. Keller and Dickey then
homered in the top of the seventh, but Red Rolfe's error at third in the last
of the inning opened the way for the Reds to go ahead with three unearned
runs. They earned a fourth run an inning later, but the Yankees tied it up
with two in the ninth (one unearned) and took the lead in the tenth with three
more runs (two unearned) on a walk, a single, and three more Red errors.
Reliever Johnny Murphy held off a Red threat in the last of the tenth and the
Series was over.
