For anyone interested in reading more about this era, I highly recommend "The Celebrant" by Eric Greenberg.
While it is a work of fiction, the players, managers, owners, and league officials are historical figures, and the games described were played on the dates given, and line scores, batting orders, and the standings of the clubs are accurately reproduced. Very few liberties have been taken with the play-by-play, and none at all where World Series games are concerned.
