Postseason Classic Proves Unpredictable After World Series
The You-Never-Can-Tell society notes the World Series saw surprising feats by the Yankees and Giants. Tony Lazzeri led both teams with a .400 average across five games and played flawless defense while Lou Gehrig drove in 3 runs to set a six-series total of 35. Babe Ruth’s 88 RBIs record falls to Gehrig as Red Atuffing and Monte Pearson compete with Carl Hubbell and others.
