The image highlights key players including Emil Meusel of the New York Giants, alongside Frisch, Schang, and an action that signifies a crucial run. Emil Meusel is noted for scoring due to a hit by Kelly, which advanced Frisch and himself to home in the eighth inning of the fifth game. This run was instrumental in securing the Giants' victory in the series. The New York Giants, managed by John McGraw during this era, faced the New York Yankees in the championship.
