Game 3 – 1944 Service World Series, Schofield Barracks

(Chevrons and Diamonds Collection)

The series shifted from Hickam Field to another Army installation, Schofield Barracks, and the Army club maintained home field advantage. Down two games to none, Winsett was hopeful that his team would rebound and stiffen up against the Navy after their 8-2 pounding in Game 2.

The Army club managed to keep this game close though they fell victim to solid Navy pitching and lost, 4-3 and fell behind 3-0 in the best of seven series.

For the 1944 Servicemen’s World Series, the Navy All-Stars seemed to hold the advantage.

(Chevrons and Diamonds Collection)

Measuring 4-3/4 x 7-inches, this card is the smallest of the Servicemen’s World Series cards though it is one of the nicest due to the cardstock and professional printing. Our copy is the first one we have seen since Chevrons and Diamonds was founded and we know of one other piece. Condition of this piece is fair-good with dog-eared corners, creasing and nominal edge wear. Making this piece quite special is that it is the only one in the seven game series of cards in our collection that is scored.
