The 1912 Red Sox Cash Out
In 1912, the Boston Red Sox beat the NY Giants in
a thrilling eight game World Series. (Game Two was
called in the eleventh inning due to darkness.)
It was baseball’s first truly exciting World
Series (the first World Series was in 1903).
Immediately following the final game, manager Garland
"Jake" Stahl, was given a check in the
amount of $88,543.44 -- the winner's share, to be
split amongst his victorious team.
This is that check. The next day, the Boston Globe
showed a picture of it.  |
