Detroit Tigers (93-58, AL) vs. Chicago Cubs (100-54, NL)
|
The 1935 World Series featured the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago Cubs, with the Tigers winning in six games for their first championship in five Series appearances. They had lost in 1907, 1908, 1909, and 1934.
The Tigers won despite losing the services of first baseman Hank Greenberg. The Detroit Tigers' superstar broke his wrist during Game 2 and had to watch from the dugout. Marv Owen replaced him at first base and went one for twenty.
The Cubs had won twenty-one consecutive games in September (still a record as of 2006), eventually taking the National League pennant by 4 games over the defending World Series champions, the St Louis Cardinals.
Stan Hack led off the top of the ninth inning of Game 6 with a triple but was stranded. The Tigers then responded in the bottom of the inning, scoring the Series winner on a single by Goose Goslin.
