What year was the 1st World Series won in

 

[Mitchell]

It's an ambiguous question, and i'll explain why:

I knew the answer to the year of the "First World Series" being won without looking, as I'm a baseball fan.
The answer to that question is 1903.

Then, just to be sure, I looked it up, and two answers came up.. with 1884 also being shown, as the first year of a postseason series also called "The World Series".

"The World Series" as it is known now, was first played in 1903, so I'm going to go with my original answer of 1903.

Now for my question, lol.
