Not so Random Boxscore

This boxscore is from October 14, 1908. This was the deciding game of the 1908 World Series. The Cubs would take the series 4 games to 1. Take a look at the time! The game took 1 hour and 25 minutes. I guess FOX skipped the Chevy Truck Commercials with John Mellencamp that year.
