Before the Series began, veteran Chicago sportswriter Warren Brown said he couldnโ€™t select a winner because he โ€œdidnโ€™t think either one of them could win.โ€

Although a total of sixty-one runs were scored in the Series, there were only three home runs, two of them by Hank Greenberg of the Tigers.
