The Series moves across the city from the Polo Grounds in Manhattan to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. As gaudy as the Giants' regular season record was, it's now looking like the World Series veteran Yankees might just take it all.

The Giants' lack of power is becoming epidemic. No matter how good your pitching is, you simply cannot win if you only score 2 runs in 3 games. Tonight, Eeyore Meyers was not as good as he'd been in the first game but what he did was still more than good enough. The Yanks turned 2 double plays behind him and the Giants left 14 men on base in this one. Michael Taylor was once again heroic for the Yanks. He singled in the 2nd inning, advanced to second on left fielder Mason Taylor's misplay of the ball, and eventually came around to score on 3B Gilbert Nelson's sacrifice fly.
