According to my almanac, there was only one triple play in the World Series
ever.  This was made by the Cleveland Indians against Brooklyn in 1920.
What is interesting (aside from the fact that anything unique is
interesting) is that it was made unassisted by the 2nd baseman Billy
Wambsganss.  Can anyone out there tell me exactly how he did it?  My
(limited) sources are silent there, and I was not at the game.
