The Series winner is determined through a best-of-seven playoff (except in 1903, 1919, 1920 and 1921 when the winner was determined through a best-of-nine playoff) and is awarded the World Series Trophy, as well as World Series rings.
These series' were arranged by the individual teams, not by the leagues directly, the same as the 1880s World's Series matches had been, and which had often proved troublesome.

 Connie Mack (baseball) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mack's son Earle Mack played several games for the A's between 1910 and 1914, and also managed the team for parts of the 1937 and 1939 seasons when his father was too ill to do so.
Mack was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1937.
His 1911 and 1929 teams are considered by many to be among the greatest baseball teams of all time, and his 3,776 lifetime wins are a major league record—as are his 4,025 losses and 7,878 games managed.

 The Sporting News: Baseball History of the World Series
Dick Rudolph, a 27-game winner for the Braves, was chosen to start Game 1 against Chief Bender, whose.850 winning percentage(l7 victories in 20 decisions) led the majors in 1914.
Game 3 was a wild one with the A's and Braves tied, 2-2, through nine innings before Baker apparently settled matters with a two-run single in the 10th off Braves starter Lefty Tyler.
No wonder Philadelphia had become the first team in Series history to be eliminated in four games (the 1907 Tigers also went winless, but Detroit managed to play a tie game against the Chicago Cubs, extending play to five games).
