I highly recommend the book titled "THE YEAR THEY CALLED OFF THE WORLD SERIES", by Benton Stark. It's an excellent, well-written, story of the entire 1904 season. Including
how Jack Chesbro (41-game winner) blew the final Play-Off game in the 9th inning that resulted in Boston winning the A.L. Pennant.

Yes, I can see how my poorly written sentence would be confusing. Devaney/Goldblatt imply that McGraw had convinced Brush not to play a Series even BEFORE the Highlanders blew it.

I like how all but one player in the top row is looking toward another camera.

That's terrific, Jeremy. I won this photo from Heritage not too long ago. These two images look cool together.

They belong together.

Good spot. Most (all?) of the images of this session I have seen are from the spot where the guys are looking - some with the banner above like in mine, some with it on the ground in front. Here is a Barney Stein photo shot from "over there" (this one isn't my photo)/
