Great stuff!
Looks like my Tigers pulled off a couple of steals, first for Lajoie and now for Cravath. Plus having Cicotte thanks to his RL 3-game stint in '05 might give Cobb the pitching he never had. ![]() BTW, are you using recalc? |

1909 Review
After an up and down history so far in the modern era, the Cincinnati Reds started hot and by the beginning of June, the Reds held a 4.5 game lead over the Pittsburgh Pirates, the then second place team. From June until the season's end, the team played championship ball. Orval Overall (18-9, 2.17 ERA) and the NL's Outstanding Pitcher, Bob Ewing (24-10, 2.00 ERA) formed the heart of a hill staff that was tops in the senior circuit. With the Cardinals right on their heels, the Reds clinched their first pennant with three games to go. Dick Hoblitzel (.284-4-82), Al Bridwell (.278-0-59) and Turkey Mike Donlin (.323-3-54) led the way at the plate. The St.Louis Cardinals ended the season in second place, 3 games behind, thanks to the 1-2 punch on the hill, Babe Adams (22-8, 1.74 ERA) and Three Finger Brown (19-13, 1.97 ERA). They were led at the plate by Red Murray (.275-9-61) and Ed Konetchy (.269-3-71). The New York Giants sneaked past the faltering Pirates and finished in third place, eight games behind the leaders. Cy Seymour (.293-3-45), Larry Doyle (.265-8-76) and Chief Meyers (.250-7-78) led the attack while the mound staff was led by the arm of Christy Mathewson (19-16, 2.28 ERA).
The NL didn't hold a monopoly on tight races, either. In the AL, the Philadelphia Athletics overcame a mid-season slump to chalk up their second straight crown, and fourth in 5 seasons, on the final day of the season. The Mackmen were led by the bats of Frank Baker (.299-5-84) and Danny Murphy (.290-3-92) and the arm of the AL's Outstanding Pitcher, Chief Bender (28-7, 1.61 ERA). The Detroit Tigers held the lead for most of the season before the champion Athletics came on at the end to tie them with ten games remaining then took the lead for good five games later. The Tigers, who were looking to repeat as AL champs, finished in second place, two games behind the White Elephants, thanks to their trio of batsmen, Nap Lajoie (.313-1-87), Sam Crawford (.313-7-84) and the junior circuit's Outstanding Hitter, Ty Cobb (.329-4-69). On the hill, the Bengals were led by 20-game winner Ed Summers (24-13, 1.86 ERA) and Bugs Raymond (19-12, 2.18 ERA). The Boston Red Sox finished a distant third place, 12 games behind the Athletics, thanks to the bats of Larry Gardner (.331-1-54), Bill Carrigan (.265-4-58) and Tris Speaker (.309-2-52). They were led on the mound by Frank Arellanes (19-13, 1.84 ERA) and Cy Young (17-16, 2.40 ERA). The Series was anticipated as a match between the two hitting powers, but ended up being highlighted by great pitching by the Chief Bender-led Mackmen. Chief Bender won three games as the Athletics' staff held the Reds lineup to 14 runs in the six games. Led by the mound staff, the Athletics won the Series, 4 games to 2, for their second straight world's championship. Code:
