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.

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.

Senators (12-48) beat Phillies (41-21), 9-0.

#1947League question:

Seamheads.com rates Homer "Goose" Curry (yesterday's hero) as one of the most productive right fielders of his era.

With what team did he finish his playing career?

@tabletopmania @YakyuNightOwl @AlexanderRaine7 @MiLBAnalysis @malinkey @BigEarl @cardboardkarl @nlarson830 @stlcolorbaseball @scottdaniel @adamlordosurety @FaultyJon @ted_duffield @uncle6 @OhhJim @sullybaseball @samsilverstein @APBAreplay

I will be back on duty soon. Just a lot of work lately. But while we waiting for #1947League, let's celebrate pitchers and catchers reporting!

Here is the team with which Homer Curry closed out his career...

BROWNS WALK OFF TIGERS IN 13

Overmire matched Welmaker over 12 innings...but Skeeter Watkins broke through for St. Louis in the bottom of the 13th with a single that scored Marquez. Gibson hit his 23rd HR.

Shutout! So this is for @samsilverstein , GM of the Bronx Bombers, who are in this thing to win this thing...

Answer to #1947League question:

Only two men in major-league history have led their league in hits in eight different seasons: Ty Cobb and and Willard Brown.

They're both in the Hall of Fame.

#baseball #nlbm #BlackHistory #BlackHistoryMonth

@YusufToropov

Ese Hombre! On top of his great career w the Monarchs, he was a legend in Puerto Rico, winning two Triple Crown's in the winter league. Darn shame he didn't get a legit shot in the majors.

@DocTellMeMore His nicknames tell it all: "Ese Hombre" ("That man," bestowed on him by terrified pitchers in Puerto Rico) and "Home Run" (bestowed on him by Josh Gibson!)

#WillardBrown was a true badass...and the only man to keep pace with Ty Cobb when it comes to leading the league in hits in multiple seasons.

And who was the last guy you saw steal second base standing up?

#baseball #BlackHistoryMonth #nlbm #1947League

https://baseballhall.org/hall-of-famers/brown-willard

Brown, Willard | Baseball Hall of Fame

His American League statistics – 21 games, a .179 batting average – tell the most incomplete story possible of the player who was Willard Brown. His Hall of Fame plaque, however, speaks volumes about the pioneer who was one of the Negro Leagues’ greatest power hitters. “He was the most natural ballplayer I ever saw,” said Negro Leagues legend Buck O’Neil. “He’d steal second base standing up. He was a great talent.”

@YusufToropov @DocTellMeMore I saw Jacoby Ellsbury do it in the minor leagues. No, the catcher didn't bobble it, the throw was mostly on line. Jacoby just... Had so much time, he just stayed up. It was absolutely wild.

SOX SALVAGE GAME 3

A loss would've tied Cleveland and Boston for 4th place, but Bill Powell (8IP, W) and Earl Johnson (SV) had other ideas. Teddy Ballgame: 4-5, 2 2B, RBI.

Cleveland in 5th place.

CLE(24 -39) 1 9 2

#1947League #baseball

@YusufToropov just another 4-5 day at the office for Teddy!!
@APBAreplay Teddy Ballgame now up to .336 in my league. Him and DiMag, the numbers are going noticeably UP after slumps. DiMag was at like .230 for the longest time, up to about .270 now. @tabletopmania
@YusufToropov @tabletopmania Figure both of those guys will continue to move that average up.
So many great players in the league there is bound to be some fluctuations in stats (which is fun to watch)

Today's #1947League game brought you by You Know Who, since we didn't have a correct answer to the trivia question. (Q. Who else beside Willard Brown led his league in hits for eight different seasons? A: Ty Cobb.)

Two #1947League teams a day, I'm going to give you a who's-hot-for-this-team toot, Here are the 24-39 #Cleveland #Indians.

I am the GM for this team and I'm not giving that job up. :-)

CARDS AVERT SWEEP

Polo Grounds fans were screaming in the 8th for the 2nd home run of the day from Mize--it would have tied the game--but St. Louis ace Harry Brecheen induced a double play.

Leon Day (CF) homered for STL.

Who's-hot-for-this-team: #1947League St. Louis Cardinals.

Reigning world champs, they gave the Dodgers a run for their money in "real life."

This GM slot is available if anyone wants to take over trade decisions. Great team. Leon Day!

Who's-hot-for-this-team: #1947League New York Giants.

Great offense, porous defense, mediocre pitching. Ostermueller just acquired from Tigers to plug that gap.

This GM slot is available if anyone wants to take over trade decisions.
