The 1914 major league baseball season began on April 13, 1914, with the first game of the inaugural season of the Federal League. The league declared itself as a "third major league", with its own eight teams, in competition with the established National and American Leagues.
The National League regular season ended on October 6 with the Boston Braves as champions, and the American League regular season concluded the next day with the Philadelphia Athletics as champions. The Federal League season ended on October 10, and saw the Indianapolis Hoosiers winning the Federal League pennant. The postseason between the National and American Leagues began with Game 1 of the 11th World Series on October 9 and ended with Game 4 on October 13. The Braves swept the Athletics in four games. Both the National and American Leagues rejected offers by the Federal League for a postseason matchup.
This was the last of four seasons that the Chalmers Award, a precursor to the Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player Award (introduced in 1931), was given to a player in each of the established National and American Leagues.
The major-league status of the Federal League was confirmed by the Special Baseball Records Committee (as convened by then-Commissioner of Baseball William Eckert) in 1969.[1]
