October 1904: The Jazzcats Take it All

New Orleans defeated the Boston Bayonets 5 games to 2 in a World Series in which Boston was certainly favored. Nap Lajoie was series MVP, hitting .433 and slugging .600 in the series. Big Ed Walsh would win 2 games and go 16 innings without giving up a run. Christy Matthewson pitched alright for Boston but was 1-2 with a 2.70 ERA in 20 innings. It is the second championship won by the Wheaton League with the Southside Strikers winning in year 1.
