In 1920, Cleveland was a Lake Erie port city of nearly 800,000 people, with steel mills, oil refining, and machine shops driving its economy. That summer the Cleveland Indians, a club in the American League, played at League Park on the city's East Side, where crowds came out to see them as one of the city's most popular civic pastimes. The season was overshadowed in August when shortstop Ray Chapman was struck by a pitch in New York and died the next day, a loss the team and its fans felt deeply. The club went on to win the World Series that fall over the Brooklyn Robins, giving Clevelanders a championship that many still remember.
