It's a sweep! The Boston Americans (4-0) secured the 1904 World Series by topping the Brooklyn Superbas (0-4) by a 5 to 4 score before a record crowd of 9,519 fans.

Given how well he did the first time around, I gave the start to Jesse Tannehill (2-0) and he came through again. In earning the victory, Tannehill allowed 4 runs (3 earned) on 7 hits, 2 walks, and 1 hit batsman in his 110-pitch outing; Game Score 59. In a must win game, the Superbas turned to Bob Wicker (0-3) again, though it ended in the same result as his previous two starts; permitting 5 earned runs on 9 hits while striking out 4; Game Score 48.

At the plate, the Boston Americans were led by Solly Hofman (2 for 4, Triple, 2 Runs), Bill Lange (2 for 4, Double, 4 RBIs), and John Farrell (2 for 3, Run). Joe Tinker (3 for 4, Double, Triple, 3 RBIs), Art Devlin (1 for 3, Triple, Run, Walk), and Jake Stahl (1 for 3, Run, Hit by Pitch) played well in the loss.

Player of the Game: Jesse Tannehill (Season: #15 / Career: #73)
