Finished this fun set a while ago, but only recently had them all moved into new SGC holders. Personally, I love the set. What a tremendous snapshot of the league in the middle of the deadball era.
Ebbets field opened in Brooklyn.
The HOF careers of greats such as Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson and Christy Mathewson were already being established, with Johnson having the lowest ERA of his career in 1913 (1.14).
Cobb and Joe Jackson battled for hitting supremacy in the American League, with Cobb nabbing the batting and on-base percentage titles and Jackson leading the league in doubles, hits and slugging percentage.
Plus, the Philadelphia A's cemented their dynasty with their 3rd World Series title in 4 years boasting the $100,000 infield of Stuffy McInnis, Eddie Collins, Jack Barry and Frank "Home Run" Baker.
In national news, the Department of Labor forms, Grand Central terminal in New York opens as well as New York's tallest skyscraper, the Woolworth building. Woodrow Wilson becomes president, and the Ford Motor company implements the first assembly line to produce their automobiles.
What a time!
