Why the Senators won: In their only World Series win in Washington, the Senators won a classic 12-inning Game 7.

Why the Giants lost: The Giants led 3-1 in the eighth inning, when Bucky Harris' grounder hit a pebble and bounded over the head of third baseman Fred Lindstrom, allowing two runs to score to tie the game.

Memorable moment: Legendary Walter Johnson, who had lost twice, then entered in relief in the ninth and shut down the Giants for four innings to get the win.

Key stat: E2. A dropped foul pop by Giants catcher Hank Gowdy in the 12th inning of Game 7 led to the winning run.
