Nice Pick-up!

It is from the same book as pictured below, which was owned by Mrs. Neal Ball. I purchased mine a few years ago off of ebay and the seller gave me copies of the booklet front and inside cover.

Neal Ball is famous for pulling off the 1st unassisted triple play of the 20th Century.

That explains the "complimentary"

Great news. I better hang onto it -for a while.
Thanks for the replies, Steve

Always tastes better with a "W". Also, Carrigan's first day as Skip.

Copy of the sports page, presumably from the Globe, with a rundown of this game reads,

BOSTON, July 25 -A victory for Boston over Chicago, 7 to 5; signalized the first appearance of Manager Carrigan here as the leader of the World's Champions. The game was a slugging match, each team having to resort to relief pitchers and pinch hitters. Boston drove Cicotte from the bar in the fifth inning with a volley of singles, and Russell, the next Chicago pitcher, made a wild pitch in this same inning, giving the locals a lead which the visitors could not overcome. Two singles and a stolen base in the eighth inning off Benz, secured Boston another run. Catcher Schalk was put off the field, for disputing a decision of Umpire O'Loughlin, who made his first appearance here this season. Can almost hear the Rooters obnoxious jeers

(Oh, Prince Hal went 2 for 3)

NICE 101SOX19!! This is some real useful info to know about the connection to Neal Ball and who owned the origional ticket book. Upon inspection, I purchased a ticket that originated from this book as well, but I had no clue about the lineage. My ticket is for the doubleheader played on 7/7/13 at Fenway. In the 1st game Chief Bender got the win against the Sox 7-4. In the 2nd game Smokey Joe Wood got the win with the Red Sox prevailing 8-3 over Philadelphia. Thanks!!

The unassisted triple-play;


"... [Neal] Ball took a ball on the fly, twenty feet
rear and right off second base, thus putting
out the batter. He hastily touched
second base, thus putting out the runner
trying to come back from third. He
then dived into Jake Stahl, as he came
running from first."

Here is my ticket from 7/7/13 at Fenway out of the complimentary season ticket book of Mrs. Neal Ball. Steve (Ladder7) asked that I post a photo. Here you go Steve!
