The suffragists sold tickets and filled the box seats. They offered a $10 gold piece to any Phillies player who got a home run. After losing the first game, the Phillies won the second game 1 – 0. They vowed to keep up the winning streak. And they did. The suffragists proclaimed that every player and every fan should vote for the suffrage amendment on November 2 since women had been responsible for the team winning the National League pennant. The Phillies luck did not last through the World Series, however, they lost to the Red Sox four games to one.
