1924 World Series

I've been staying up way-too-late watching baseball this week.  The Royals have to stop taking games into extra innings!

Today, I found footage of another extra-innings game, this one played to conclude the 1924 World Series.   That is right... footage from 1924!  The Washington Senators beat the New York Giants.  President Coolidge was at the game.  The footage from the Library of Congress is remarkably clear.  Fun to see, especially given the fact that the Nationals are playing the Giants this post season.
