History

Historical Context

In 1903 the Boston Americans, managed by Jimmy Collins, faced the Pittsburgh Pirates in baseball’s first modern World Series, a best-of-nine contest played Oct 1-13. Boston rallied from a 3-1 deficit to win five games to three, securing the American League’s first championship and establishing the annual “Fall Classic.” Pitchers Cy Young and Deacon Phillippe starred, and the series featured the first World Series home run.
