Pop Foster is on a crushing pace, as he has 9 homeruns at the break. Socks Seybold holds the league record with 12 homeruns. Foster also has a shot for the triple crown, as he is first in average, first in homeruns, and 3rd in RBI, 3 behind Baltimore SS Bill Keister.

                  The 
                    New York Giants have just confirmed reports that Starting 
                    Pitcher Christy Mathewson is on the trade block. Matthewson, 
                    21, won the National League pitcher of the year award and 
                    National League Rookie of the Year award last season going 
                    20-9 with a 1.35 ERA. This season, Mathewson is 10-10 with 
                    a 2.06 ERA. Reports have it that the Giants are frustrated 
                    with the teams' 41-54 start. The Giants rank in the bottom 
                    25% in all major offensive statistical categories, so offense 
                    could be their main priority.

                    first no-hitter in hMLB history, as the Athletics defeated 
                    the Cleveland Bronchos 6-0. Bernhard needed just 69 pitches 
                    to get through the Indians batters. Unfortunately, two errors 
                    in the field (1B Harry Davis and SS Harry Lochhead) prevented 
                    Bernhard from getting the perfect game. All 27 outs were made 
                    by the fielders, as Bernhard failed to strike anyone out. Bernhard is now 19-12 on the year with a 2.28 ERA.

                  With 
                    5 games to go in the season, both Pennants are up for grabs 
                    once again. Over in the American League no one knows what 
                    will happen, as four teams are fighting for one spot. Philadelphia 
                    leads the way at 
                    75-60 while Baltimore and Chicago both trail by 1 game. Detroit, 
                    not yet out of the picture, is 2 games back. Philadelphia 
                    and Chicago play the last day of the season.
                  Over 
                    in the National League, its a two team race. The Pittsburgh 
                    Pirates and the Brooklyn Superbas have been fighting for that 
                    pennant since the All-Star break. Pittsburgh is currently 
                    one game up with a record of 84-51. Brooklyn is 83-52. These 
                    two teams meet on the last day of the season if it comes down 
                    to it.

                    American League could not get anymore exciting, thanks to 
                    another great day of baseball. Division leaders Philadelphia

                    9-6, while the White Sox lost to St. Louis 4-0. Baltimore 
                    took advantage of the opportunity, as they created another 
                    three way tie atop the AL, with their 8-1 beating of Detroit. 
                    The loss puts Detroit in an unfavorable position, two games

                    to Cincinnati. The good news is that Pittsburgh also lost 
                    5-3 against Chicago to keep the Superbas hopes alive. They 
                    are two games back with two to play. A win by Pittsburgh, 
                    or a loss by Brooklyn eliminates them from contention.

                    second in a row. The Pirates knocked off Philadelphia 9-8

                    to beat Detroit 13-7, eliminating Detroit from contention. 
                    The Chicago White Sox also won their game, a 4-2 victory over 
                    Washington. Philadelphia has fallen off the pace, as they 
                    lost 5-1 against Boston to fall one game behind Chicago and 
                    Baltimore. 
                  Philadelphia 
                    and Chicago will play each other in Chicago to finish the

                    the mound while Chicago will look to Clark Griffith (23-12, 
                    2.26 ERA) in what is easily the most anticipated regular season

                  The 
                    drama was high for the last day of the season, as three teams 
                    had a shot to win the AL Pennant. The biggest game, Philadelphia 
                    @ Chicago, controlled the destiny for all three teams.
                  Philadelphia 
                    was able to knock off Chicago on the road 5-2, to keep their 
                    hopes alive. Reigning AL Batter of the Year Socks Seybold 
                    hit a 3 run homerun in the top of the 7th inning that proved 
                    to be the difference maker. If the Orioles won, they would 
                    take home the pennant. However if they lost, a hectic 3 team 
                    playoff would then ensue.
                  Unfortunately, 
                    there would be no hectic 3 game playoff as the Baltimore Orioles 
                    took care of the Senators 5-3 to capture the American League 
                    Pennant with a record of 78-62. Not bad for a team who finished 
                    6th in the AL with a 67-73 record last season.
                  The 
                    Pittsburgh Pirates and Baltimore Orioles will get set to play 
                    the World Series.

          World Series Review
    
     
       
          
             
               
                  The 
                    Pittsburgh Pirates are back on familiar grounds, as their 
                    pitching staff will be put to the test against the slugging 
                    Baltimore Orioles. The Pirates, whos 4 man rotation of Jesse 
                    Tannehill, Deacon Phillippe, Jack Chesbro, and Rube Waddell 
                    cannot be matched anywhere. Period. The rotation is so deep 
                    that Waddell, a 25 year old star in the making, has a career 
                    38-27 record with an ERA of 2.16 each season and will not 
                    even be starting in the Series, due to the 3 man rotation 
                    rules. Pittsburgh had an all-around great season as they finished 
                    2nd in the league with a .259 batting average, 2nd in runs 
                    scored (581), 1st in team ERA (2.38), 3rd in opponents average 
                    (.230), T-5th in homeruns allowed (18), 3rd in walks allowed 
                    (198), and 2nd in runs allowed (448). Reigning NL Batter of 
                    the Year Honus Wagner lead the offense with a .333 average 
                    (lead the league), 3 homeruns, 75 RBI (4th in the NL), 85 
                    runs (1st in the NL), and 45 steals (9th in the NL).
                  The 
                    Pirates finished 2nd in average and runs to one team, the 
                    Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles were a team built around offense, 
                    definetely not pitching. Ranked first in team batting average 
                    (.264), T-1st in team walks (305), 1st in stolen bases (260), 
                    and first in runs scored (616), the Orioles offense is one 
                    to be reckoned with. Mike Donlin leads this powerful offense, 
                    as he had an average of .325 (1st in AL), 7 homeruns (3rd 
                    in AL), 82 RBI (2nd in AL), 84 runs (2nd in AL), and 35 steals.
                  Prediction: 
                    It's a true test of pitching vs. hitting, but unlike the Orioles 
                    16th ranked team ERA, Pittsburgh can also hit. Pirates in 
                    5.
