Default T202 Mathewson Panel Question
On the reverse of Matty's T202 panel it says that he "mowed down the Yankees in 1910 (14 in one game)". With Matty pitching for the NL Giants, and never facing the AL Yankees in a regulation or post-season game -- what the heck are they talking about? My guess is there was some kind of interleague, Mayor's or Governor's Cup type game that is being referenced here. It would be hard to imagine such an exhibition game today meriting reference on the back of a baseball card, but in 1910 it might have been a popular local news item. Any ideas?
