The Steam recording from that Friday night 7/29 vs KC is truly an incredible audio snapshot of Summer of ‘77 - Mark Littell pulled in 7th bases loaded no outs - Loren Brown’s call of Sunday DH GM1 (Stone pitched into 10th, Chester 2R HR tied game and Garr single won it) also!
Going to game tonight? 7/19 is special. OTD Feller (‘36) & Tiant (‘64) debuts; Neal Ball unassisted triple play (1909-1st in MLB history); Dick Bosman no-no (‘74); Joe Carter 3 HRs (‘89); Thome 2 HRs (‘94, again in 2000!); Albert’s 1st HR (‘89); & Cy Young’s 500th W (1910)! CLE⚾️
#OTD in 1887, Joseph Jefferson Jackson was born in Pickens County, SC. One of the greatest ballplayers of all-time, he’s mostly remembered today for how he left the game after the Black Sox Scandal. Here’s my painting of him in his first full year with the Cleveland Naps in 1911.
