AI notes: Game 3 of the 1923 World Series, held on October 12 at the brand-new Yankee Stadium, was a tightly contested pitching duel that ended with the New York Giants defeating the Yankees 1–0. The Giants’ Art Nehf pitched a complete-game shutout, allowing just six hits, while the Yankees’ Sad Sam Jones struggled to contain the Giants’ lone decisive blow. That run came in the seventh inning, when Casey Stengel launched a solo home run into right-field bleachers, proving enough to secure the victory. Despite limited offensive production—both teams managed only a handful of hits—the game drew a crowd of approximately 62,430 fans, eager to witness the action at Yankee Stadium. The win gave the Giants a temporary 2–1 lead in the series, though the Yankees would rebound to eventually claim their first-ever World Series title in six games.
