In the 1929 World Series, the Philadelphia Athletics beat the Chicago Cubs in 5 games.

The famous "Mack Attack" occurred in 1929, named for the legendary manager of the Athletics, Connie Mack, in which the Athletics overcame an eight-run deficit by scoring ten runs in the 7th inning of Game 4. The inning featured an infamous Cubs moment when centerfielder Hack Wilson lost Mule Haas' fly ball in the sun resulting in a bases-clearing, inside-the-park home run, although the A's still trailed 8-7 at that point. Game 1 featured a surprise start by aging A's pitcher Howard Ehmke, whose record 13 strikeouts stood until 1953.

Managers: Connie Mack (Philadelphia), Joe McCarthy (Chicago)

Umpires: Bill Klem (NL), Bill Dinneen (AL), Charlie Moran (NL), Roy Van Graflan (AL)
