Even though Evers, going through his fourth pennant race after three with the magnificent Cubs teams of '06, '07, and '08, felt that he would be the first to crack under the pressure, "the Crab" and the rest of the Braves played solid and took the pennant on September 29, beating who else but Evers' ex-teammates, the Chicago Cubs, 3-2. The unquestionable leader of the Tribe on the field, Johnny Evers was named MVP of the National League in 1914. ("Baseball's Miracle Boys")
