The 1905 World Series was the championship series in Major League Baseball for the 1905 season. The National League (NL) champion New York Giants defeated the American League (AL) champion Philadelphia Athletics, with the Giants winning 4 games to 1, now in a best-4-of-7 format. Four of the five games featured duels between future Hall of Fame pitchers. The games were the second edition of the World Series after the initial meeting in 1903, since the 1904 season ended with no Series held.
Games 1 and 3 were played in Philadelphia; games 2, 4, 5 in New York.
Each of the five games was a shutout. Three of those, over a six-day span, were pitched and won by Christy Mathewson.
