Does anyone know what "...mowing down the Yankees in 1910 (14 in one game)..." refers to on the back of Mathewson's card?
Neither the Giants or Yankees were in the World Series in 1910 and according to Mathewson's game log on Baseball Reference, the most he struck out in a regular season game in 1910 was 11. Does this refer to an exhibition or pre-season game? And weren't the Yankees called the Highlanders in 1910?
