• 1924 - Clark Griffith picks 27-year-old second baseman Bucky Harris to manage the Senators.

   

• 1925 - At the American League meeting, a plan is adopted to alternate the site of future World Series openers by league rather than deciding it by a coin toss, with Games 1, 2, 6, and 7 in one park and 3, 4, 5 in the other, unless a ban on Sunday baseball interferes in one city. The clubs finishing fourth in the A.L. share in the World Series pool. World Series umpires get a raise to $2,500, while umps in city series will earn $700.
