The St. Louis Browns nearly go on a sitdown strike in support of teammate William "Yank" Robinson. Robinson had been suspended and fined after a shouting match with owner Chris Von der Ahe, and his indignant teammates had refused to go to Kansas City for their next series. At the last minute, the players board the train, but they would then drop 3 in a row to the Cowboys amid charges that they are losing on purpose.
