Was Dustin Peoria the first player to ever hit a home run in the first game of a world series?

Dustin Pedroia, as the first batter in the 2007 World Series, hit a home run off of Jeff Francis of the Colorado Rockies. That has been done once before, in the 1969 World Series when Don Buford of the Baltimore Orioles led off the Series with a home run off of Tom Seaver of the New York Mets. There have been many players to hit a home run in the first game of the World Series, the first being Jimmy Sebring of the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 1903 World Series. But Pedroia and Buford are the only two players that hit home runs in the first at bat of a World Series.
