context_page_description: The 1929 World Series featured the American League champion Philadelphia Athletics playing against the National League champion Chicago Cubs. The Athletics defeated the Cubs in five games to win the Series.
  This Series featured the Athletics "Mack Attack", in which they overcame an eight-run deficit by scoring 10 runs in the home half of the seventh in Game 4 to gain a 10–8 victory which ensured the Series didn't even out at two games won apiece. The Athletics were further exalted in the middle of the "Mack Attack" when Cub's center fielder Hack Wilson lost Mule Haas's fly ball in the sun for a fluke three-run inside-the-park home run, bringing the A's to within a run at 8–7. It was the last occurrence of an inside-the-park home run in a World Series game until Game 1 of the 2015 World Series.
context_section_description: Game 3 was a pitcher's duel.  It also featured many tense moments.  Guy Bush won this game for the Cubs only victory, holding the A's to one run despite allowing nine hits and two walks.
