For a variety of reasons, the 1908 American League pennant race has
received much less attention from baseball historians than what
happened in the National League that year. Yet the AL's race,
involving the league's four westernmost teams, was equally
dramatic; with only five games left in the season, all four still
had a chance to win the pennant. It was the height of what came to
be called the "deal ball era," marked by spectacular pitching and
mostly low-scoring, quickly played games, and featuring an
abundance of colorful characters and controversial, often bizarre,
episodes. It was also a time when professional baseball truly came
into its own as America's "National Pastime."
