Recap
Ty Cobb leads the way again capturing the Triple Crown, and leading the Tigers to a 98-54 record for the 3rd straight AL Pennant. In the World Series the Tigers face the Pittsburgh Pirates who are lead by Honus Wagner, who is as close to a polar opposite to Cobb as they come. This would set the stage for one of the best early World Series. The Pirates would take Game 1 thanks to a game saving catch by Tommy Leach. The Tigers would bounce back to take Game 2 in a game highlighted by Ty Cobb's steal of home. In Game 3 the Pirates led by Honus Wganer's 3 hits and RBI hold off the Tigers late rally to take a 2-1 series lead. The Tigers would even the series in Game 4 thanks to George Mullins shutout. However the Tigers would face the brink in Game 6 after Fred Clarke's 3-run Homer broke open a tie game in Game 5. The Tigers would bounce back once again to force the first Game 7 in World Series history. However it was not meant to be as the Bucs scored 8 runs as the Tigers walked the plank in the Series for the 3rd year in a row.
