1925 World Series

In the 1925 World Series, the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Washington Senators in seven games.

Washington's Walter Johnson dominated the Pirates in Games 1 and 4 to give the Senators a 3-1 Series lead. After Pittsburgh won the next two games, Johnson again took the mound for Game 7, and carried a 6-4 lead into the bottom of the seventh inning. But errors by shortstop Roger Peckinpaugh in both the seventh and eighth inning led to four unearned runs, and the Pirates become the first team in a best-of-seven Series to overcome a 3-1 Series deficit to win the championship.

Managers: Bill McKechnie (Pittsburgh), Bucky Harris (Washington)

Umpires: Cy Rigler (NL), Brick Owens (AL), Barry McCormick (NL), George Moriarty (AL)
