Road Win Lifts New York to 1-0 Lead in World Series
The World Series got off to a quiet start today, with the traveling New York Knickerbockers taking a low-scoring 2-1 win over the host Pittsburgh Industrials.

Bert Carter aided the New York cause with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the sixth. For the game, the left fielder drove in one run.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said New York manager .

Game 2 is scheduled for tomorrow. The scheduled starters for the game are Charlie Schmidt for New York and Frederic Isaac for Pittsburgh.
