This was the fourth season in which a playoff was held to determine the pennant, for which the first half leader would be matched against the second half winner. St. Louis won the first half while Chicago won the second half. As such, they met for a best-of-nine Championship Series. St. Louis would win the series in nine games to win their first pennant. [1]
