If you can figure out what the rules are, don't hesitate to break them. No penalty for being a day or two off either. Sometimes more than one thing happens on one day and some days are slow "news" days.

100 years ago today a ballplayer mimicked Shohei Ohtani in Boston.

He walked twice, had one single, was caught stealing and in the eighth inning hit a two run homerun to lead his team to 2-0 victory preserving a 2 hit shutout for Bush.

His name wasn't Pipp.

On September 8, 1924, Walter Johnson pitched a complete-game, 8 to 4 win over the Philadelphia Athletics to keep the Senators 2 games ahead of the Yankees in the race for the AL pennant. Player-manager Bucky Harris led the attack with 3 RBIs, and WaJo himself, a very-good-hitting pitcher, chipped in with 2 hits, a RBI and 2 runs scored.

September 9, 1924 Rogers Hornsby went 2-4 with a rbi in the 138th game of the season - by this point he had what could be considered a full season with 207 hits and 40 doubles - His batting average at this time was .432 !
From here he would go on to “slump” down to .424

Default A Pitcher's Duel????

On September 10th my namesake Frankie Frisch had six consecutive hits before being retired to complete a 6 for 7 day at the plate. The Giants were ahead 20-0 in the seventh inning. Huntzinger relieved Barnes for the Giants in the 8th and gave up a run to Boston. The Giants however prevailed 22-1 and Huntzinger is credited with a retroactive "save". At least Barnes got the W.

Default Bottomley on September 16, 1924

I remember it well for on this day Jim Bottomley set an enduring record by knocking in 12 runs in a game against Brooklyn. He went 6 for 6 with 3 singles, 1 double and 2 home runs. He was so tired that after his sixth hit in the 9th inning, a single, he was replaced with a pinch runner. Jim hit a grand slam in the 4th inning. In each of his six trips to the plate there were runners on base and all six of his hits knocked in at least one run. I suspect that having an RBI in six different innings of a game may also be a record. The Cardinals won this game 17-3.
