Veep Candidates watching the World Series

While doing some research on Pat McGlothin's 1944 game in which he faced Ted Williams seven times, struck him out once and held him hitless I came across this filler piece.

The original story spanned two columns. I've spliced them together for readability.   FDR and Truman won the election.  The Cardinals won the World Series.
