Lot # 2224: 1914 Boston "Miracle" Braves (vs. Philadelphia Athletics) World Series Game 3 Ticket Stub PSA VG 3 - 1 of 2 - Highest Graded!

Ticket stub issued for Game 3 of the 1914 World Series between the Boston "Miracle" Braves and Philadelphia Athletics, held at Fenway Park in Boston on October 12th. Graded VG 3 by PSA. This is one of only two 1914 World Series Game 3 ticket stubs graded at this level by PSA with none higher. This ticket commemorates one of the most improbable World Championships in baseball history. On July 18, 1914, the Boston Braves were in last place and trailed the first place Giants by eleven games. Miraculously, the team then went on a remarkable winning streak that had them post a record of 60-16 to close out the season and capture the pennant. That incredible feat, together with their subsequent victory over the A's in the World Series, earned the club the apt sobriquet “The Miracle Braves." The ticket stub (1-3/8 x 3) displays a chipped upper-left corner and an irregular tear along the bottom edge. An outstanding example of this scarce World Series ticket stub.
