The 1927 Colored World Series was the championship tournament for the 1927 season of Negro league baseball. It was the fourth overall Series played. It matched the Chicago American Giants, champions of the Negro National League (1920–1931) and the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, New Jersey, champions of the Eastern Colored League. The Giants won the series five games to three (with one tie). The two teams had faced a year earlier in the 1926 Colored World Series with the same result.[1]
This time around, it was Chicago that had to hold back a comeback, since they had won the first four games (all played in Chicago) and needed just one more to clinch the Series. They proceeded to lose three of the next four while tying Game 6, which meant that there could have been a Game 10 if Chicago did not win in Atlantic City. They prevailed 11-4 in Game 9 to prevail and win their second straight title. It was the last Negro World Series played for fifteen years.
In Game 5, Luther Farrell of the Bacharach Giants pitched a shortened no-hitter, allowing no hits in a 7-inning complete game that was called early due to darkness.[1]
