St. Louis 1923 World Series Champions
The St. Louis Explorers pulled out all the stops tonight, winning the World Series in a hard-fought series with the Brooklyn Bluebirds.

It was a seesaw affair, but with a 6-1 victory at Castle Point Field, St. Louis lay claim to the franchise's 3rd championship.

"There's no denying we faced a tough opponent," said Edgar Bath. "But as the old saying goes, 'when the going gets tough, the tough get going,' and that's what we did today."

The champs finished the regular season 93-65 and claimed first place in the National Baseball League Western Division.

A victory parade is set to be schedule in St. Louis in the days to come.
