Though the New York Yankees were dominant in 1928, they knew who their competition was, and the Philadelphia Athletics provided all the Bronx Bombers could handle down the stretch. While it would be the Yankees again in 1928, this series at the end of the season symbolized a changing of the guard in the American League as the A's would take the pennant the next three seasons! Here Hall of Famer Tony Lazzeri is caught between third and home in a run-down against the Athletics and while he would be tagged out, the Yankees would take the game 5-0. A large action photo that is quite clear considering the technology of the era, issued by the International News and stamped on the back.
