BLACK, RIGNEY UNLOAD ON CARDINALS
The Giants put the game out of reach with a big 8th inning. Bill Rigney got the key hit, a bases-loaded that sent Leon Day to the showers. Joe Black: CG, 3Ks, 2 ER.

#1947League question:
In our alternate universe, Joe Black was a hero for the Giants today.
For what team did he most famously play in real life?

CORRECT! What would you like to hear tomorrow, Alex?
Haha, my drop-in timing has

This song refers to the drum made of hollow bamboo joints. The word 'tamboo' comes from the French word 'tambour'. "

Today's #1947League hero, spitballer Bill Byrd, led his league in wins and innings pitched in 1948 -- his final major league season.
For which team did he play that year?

ON ANY GIVEN MONDAY
Last-place Senators break up Groundhog Thompson's no-hitter w/1 out in 7th, proceed to go nuts on Philly.
Walt Masterson gets the W in what was, for most of the game, a pitcher's duel. Homer Curry: 4 RBI.

Yep! New-look Senators take 3 of 7 from the mighty Phillies.

Senators (12-48) beat Phillies (41-21), 9-0.
That's not just a shutout, that's a million-to-one-shot kind of deal.
So we get an extended performance from the Beautiful Shuffle Girls today. #1947League
