Weavers, Quakers Play 10 to Settle Game 2, Pittsburgh Now Leads Series 2-0
When the stakes were high, Ervin Fair raised his game to match.

The right-handed Fair turned in a stellar performance in Game 2 of the World's Championship Series today, pitching a 10-inning, complete-game shutout to lead the Pittsburgh Weavers to victory. He allowed 10 hits and struck out 2. The win gave Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead over the Philadelphia Quakers in the best-of-7 series.

Joseph Madison's hit in the top of the tenth was a game-changer. With no one out, he rapped a fastball from Junior Brownell for a run-scoring double. It put Pittsburgh in front, 4-3.

"Good win for us, tough loss for them," said Madison.

Game 3 is set to be played Friday, October 8th, 1897 at Dormont Park. Slated to start are Soup Boles for Philadelphia and Prince Bales for Pittsburgh.
