Major League Baseball team season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1892 Boston Beaneaters season was the 22nd season of the franchise. The Beaneaters won their second straight and fifth overall National League pennant. In the league's first split season, the Beaneaters finished first in the first half, and three games behind the Cleveland Spiders in the second half. After the season, the two teams played a "World's Championship Series", which the Beaneaters won, five games to none (with one tie). The National League did not play another split season until 1981.
