For the first two AL seasons, there was no team in New York. And they were not officially known as the Yankees until 1913.<br /><br />(<a href="http://baseballresearcher.blogspot.com/2010/03/that-famous-yankees-logo.html" rel="nofollow">Neat research</a> on the NYY logo, at a very cool blog.)allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-40186146249137248752011-01-17T18:58:40.698-08:002011-01-17T18:58:40.698-08:00The bottom of the ninth was described batter by ba...The bottom of the ninth was described batter by batter in the AP story from 4/26/1901. It's in a few different papers on Google News search.<br /><br />The only things I had to speculate on were RBIs on a couple of those plays (that's what my numbers in parentheses are, I forgot to note that), and whether the 3rd baseman was credited with an E on that grounder (box score said he had two in the game so I assume that was one of them).<br /><br />One of the papers headlined it "Panic in Detroit."<br /><br />And the Baltimore paper also talked about opening day vs. Boston, and the pre-game parade!
