World Series 1900 Log

Game 1 - Washington began the series at home. Rich Vernon battled Dave Wood in a great pitchers duel that saw no relief efforts. Wood was great for the Cubs only allowing 2 runs, however Vernon staved off the Cubs until a one run RBI double by Marcus everson. The Senators lead 1-0 heading into tomorrow's game.

Game 2 - The Cubs tied it up in a close game which they burst open in the 7th inning with 2 RBI that would eventually lead to a loss for Michael Allen and the Senators.

Game 3 - Chicago opened up a great home start to the series by blanking Washington 4-0. The series sways in the Cubs favor now only needing 2 more victories to capture the gold. Their pitching has completely shut down the Senators who have only one batter hitting over .200 for average.

Game 4 - The series is tied up again as the first world series looks to be one that will be remembered far down the road. The Senators struck first and kept hacking away at Harley Sanger who may not have had enough rest to really start this game.

Game 5 - The Cubs homestand today ended with a big win. The series will head back to Washington but Chicago holds onto a 3-2 lead. Ryan Gordon held the Senators to one run showing off for the Chi-town fans despite a lowly regular season showing.

Game 6 - Washington was held on the brink in close first four innings before completely white washing the Chicago pitching staff. Dave Wood got a second series loss as Rich Vernon laid him to rest for the second time.

Game 7 - The most anticipated game of the season. Washington in favor with the home field advantage and Michael Allen on the mound. The most exciting game all year nearly ended prematurely in the 9th for the Senators before Ken Young sac flyed and hit in Ty Keller to tie the game up at 6. The score stalled until the 13th inning when the Cubs saw 4 straight batters score and the Senators failed to come alive. A double with two outs scored Howard Risley cutting the lead to 10-7 before Eric Daly grounded out ending the series and sending the Senators packing.
