No to Caminiti

I will give the answer so someone can take over.
Jim Gentile 1961 Baltimore Orioles Hit 46 HRs.
Story was as Maris and Mantle were fighting it out for the HR crown and the record ,Jim Gentile was also having a great year. In his contract it was written that Jim was intitled to a bonus of 5000 dollars if he finished first in the RBI lead. Maris finished with 142, Jim with 141. Many years later it was determinded that 1 of Rogers rbis had scored on an error. So jim had finished tied for the rbi lead. The orioles made good on thier word many years later by having a Jim Gentile night and giving him a check for the 5000 dollars I believe some 25+years later that he had won for the rbi title.

Looks like we are headed for the parking lot (Rule 6)

Regardless we need another question. I'm okay with semivintage questions about Italian dingers and the like, but don't tell Leon. He might boot us to another board that fewer people see.

Here's another question

There is a misspelled name in the T206 set, that is unique for a reason not related to the spelling error. What is the error aand why is it unique?
