With about a dozen games to go in the season, Boston has opened up a three-game lead on Chicago and Cleveland. The Red Caps are now in the midst of an eleven-game winning streak and seem likely to land their second consecutive National League pennant.
Meanwhile, Cal McVey of Boston is a mere six hits short of 1,000 for his career. Barring a major slump, he is going to make it to this impressive total before the season's end.
