1903 World Series Game 3

Game 3: Pirates: 4 Red Sox: 2 (Pittsburgh leads 2-1)
WP: Phillippe (2-0)

LP: Hughes (0-1)

Deacon Phillippe started his second game of the series on one day of rest. He pitched a complete game 4-hitter as the Pirates took the game 4-2 and a 2-1 series lead. That would never happen today! Claude Richey and Ed Phelps had two hits each for the Pirates. Hall of Famer Jimmy Collins posted two of the Red Sox hits. They managed only four total against Phillippe. 20 game winner Long Tom Hughes lasted only two innings giving up three runs. Cy Young pitched the remaining seven.
