On October 13, 1914, At Fenway Park the “Miracle Braves” Boston Braves complete a remarkable sweep of the Philadelphia A’s to win the World Series. Johnny Evers’ two-out, two-run single in the bottom of the fifth broke a 1–1 tie and the collective backs of the heavily favored Athletics. Game 1 winner Dick Rudolph allowed only one base-runner after Evers’ tie-breaking hit and struck out seven in notching his second win of the series. The powerful A’s were held to a .172 team batting average and no home runs in the series.
The sweep was the first in World Series history. The Braves were 15 games out of first place in early July and won the National League pennant by ten and a half games.
