As the 2025 World Series ends this weekend, we look back at one of the craziest fall classics in history.
In the latest edition of Reading Baseball, Pete Peterson remembers the 100th anniversary of the 1925 World Series, where the 7th and final game was played in a downpour, forcing officials to set the infield on fire with gasoline to dry it.
Reading Baseball is a series of essays and commentaries by Richard “Pete” Peterson, author of Growing Up With Clemente and the editor of The St. Louis Baseball Reader.
