A World Series ticket from a classic 1–0 pitchers’ duel between Brooklyn and New York.
Why This Ticket Matters
On October 6, 1949, the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees 1–0 in Game 2 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium.
Preacher Roe pitched a complete-game shutout for Brooklyn, and Gil Hodges drove in the game’s only run. The victory evened the Series after two games, although the Yankees won the next three to take the championship.
This ticket represents the Dodgers’ lone victory in the 1949 Fall Classic and a tightly played chapter in the growing Subway Series rivalry.
