The Boston Red Sox win their third World Series in four years, beating the Chicago Cubs 2-1 in Game 6 at Fenway Park. The World Series was moved up to September due to the “Work or Fight” order given to able-bodied men with World War I entering a critical stage. It is also Boston’s fifth overall World Championship and fourth since 1912.
