Braves Win to Extend Series Lead to 2-0
When the stakes were high, Holt McDowell raised his game to match.

The right-handed McDowell turned in a stellar performance in Game 2 of the World Series today, pitching a 9-inning, complete-game shutout to lead the Boston Braves to victory. He allowed 8 hits and struck out 3. The win gave Boston a 2-0 lead over the New York Yankees in the best-of-7 series.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Lee Magee? The Boston catcher had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Braves on top, 2-0. For the game, Magee had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," McDowell told the Boston Daily News. "It's as simple as that."

The next game is scheduled for Wednesday, October 13th, 1915 at Braves Field in Boston. Slated to start are Ed Summers for New York and Charles Parkins for Boston.
