I know we have a couple Ruth/Cobb threads going. But since both had historic milestones on this date, I figured to start a new one. Hope it's OK.
1921 - At Navin Field in Detroit, Babe Ruth becomes the all-time home run leader when he hits his 139th career blast as a major leaguer. The Yankee slugger’s 36th homer of the season, a mammoth shot that travels over 500 feet, puts him ahead of Roger Connor, who connected for 138 round-trippers during his 18 years in the National League. 1927 - Ty Cobb becomes the first major leaguer to collect 4,000 career hits. The 40 year-old A's outfielder reaches the milestone with a first-inning double off Sam Gibson in Philadelphia's 5-3 loss to the Tigers at Shibe Park. |
