It looked like Boston had the pennant but Manhattan made a nice comeback beating Boston head to head and taking the crown by 2 games. The difference maker during the year was Hall of Famer Elmer Flick. Flick won the triple crown in the Cartwright League, tying Mike Donlin in batting average .339, tying Harry Lumley in HR (8) and winning the RBI title (90).
In real life he was the man who Cleveland would not trade for Ty Cobb and he was elected to the Hall in 1963.
