New York: 2 Philadelphia: 0 (Giants win World Series 4-1)
WP: Mathewson (3-0)
LP: Bender (1-1)
Christy Mathewson returned for the third time in five games to shutout the A's. This time, Mathewson defeated Game 2 shutout victor Chief Bender by a score of 2-0. New York scored the only run needed in the fifth on a fly ball double play. In the eighth, Mathewson scored on a ground out. In the top of the ninth, the A's hit three weak grounders, two right back to the mound, to end the first Best-of-Seven World Series. It was the only series to feature a shutout in every game.
Christy Mathewson would have been a unanimous MVP. He threw three complete game shutouts in five games. Overall, he tossed 27 innings, surrendered 13 hits, walked 1 and struckout 18. Joe McGinnity won the other game for New York. The entire staff posted a 0.00 ERA. Red Ames made the only relief appearance for either side.
The A's posted a cumulative 1.67 ERA in defeat. They batted .155 as a team with just 2 RBI and a miniscule .373 OPS. Topsey Hatsel led the A's with a .235 average and .610 OPS. The team struck out 25 times in the five games.
New York batted marginally better than Philadelphia. They hit .216 with a .556 OPS. Roger Bresnahan hit .313 with a .938 OPS. Billy Gilbert hit .294, but not one else topped .263. Neither team hit a home run.
