On this date in 1914, the Boston Red Sox’ Babe Ruth's plays in his 1st professional game (as a pitcher) in a 6-hit 6-0 win. Here he is with the good guys in 1919:
Brooklyn Dodgers/Yankees, Spring Training. Can you guess the year ? Stick around for Lou. ⚾️⚾️⚾️From the @flagstafffilms home movie baseball archive.
NL and AL batting champs, 1938. Catcher Ernie Lombardi led the NL w/ a .342 mark, while slugger Jimmie Foxx‘ .349 paced the AL. #battingchamp #1930s #Redsox #Reds
When 20 year-old “Rapid” Robert Feller struck out 7.83 batters per 9 innings in 1938, it stood as the second highest figure in AL history. Rube Waddell fanned 8.13 per 9 in 1904. #rapidrobert #strikeout #fastball #clevelandindians
Pre-game, 1934 AS Game, Polo Grounds. Favorite part, the uniform numbers of course.⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️ From the @flagstafffilms home movie baseball archive.
Jay Hanna Dean, better known as "Dizzy" and Lynwood Thomas Rowe, better known as "Schoolboy", aces of their respective pitching staffs, shake hands prior to the 1934 World Series. St. Louis bested Detroit in seven games. #Tigers #STLCards #goldenage
Following his 1937 AL MVP season wherein he hit a league best .371, Tigers' 2B Charlie Gehringer received a $1500 raise. His 1938 salary of $20,000 was equivalent to $443,024 in today's dollars. #mechanicalman #Tigers #goldenage @lost_ballparks @sigg20
04/19/24 In its 1st game vs WSH in ’24, NYY was soundly beaten 7-2. It was NYY’s 3rd straight loss. In the 5th INN, after taking a called 3rd strike, Babe Ruth “showed his disapproval by tossing his bat high into the air & sullenly walking to the bench.” He was then ejected.

Boston Braves at the Polo Grounds, 1933⚾️From the @flagstafffilms home movie baseball archive.
4/19/42 Boston Braves rookie Warren Spahn makes his Major League debut and throws two-thirds scoreless innings against the New York Giants. He'd pitch for 21 seasons and miss three while serving in WWII
Your @Cardinals at Braves Field in Boston.🐦 Frankie, Pepper, and some rare clips of Rajah among others. ⚾️Believed to be 1933.
300-game winner Lefty Grove did not make his American League debut until 1925, his age 25 season. Grove went 108-36 for Baltimore of the International League from 1920-24. #goldenage #lefty #GOAT𓃵 #Athletics
In nine years w/ the Cleveland Indians, HOF right-hander Stan Coveleski won 172 games, posted a 2.80 ERA, tossed 31 shutouts and won a WS title in 1920. #1920WS #1920s #clevelandindians

4/11/80 Super Joe makes his big league debut and goes 1 for 4 with a homer off of Angels pitcher Dave Frost. He'd finish the year with 23 homers and a Rookie of the Year Award. Here's the rest of the day in 1980s Baseball: 80sbaseball.com/april11/
4/9/87 Phil Niekro beats the Blue Jays with Steve Carlton picking up the save. It's the first time two 300-game winners pitch for the same team in the same game. Here is the rest of the action for April 9th in 1980s Baseball: 80sbaseball.com/april9/

"The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure much." William Hazlitt This quote is Samuel Johnson to the core. Johnson: "Human life is everywhere a state in which much is to be endured, and little to be enjoyed."
OTD in 1888 I made the greatest catch ever seen on the St. Louis grounds. Harry Lyons hit a drive that seemed destined for a HR. I reached over the fence and made a miraculous catch robbing him of his HR.
Not only did SLB & manager George Sisler begin the 1924 season 1-6, they were also missing 1923 20-GW Urban Shocker. After being drilled by DET to the tune of 7 ER over 4 1/3 INN Shocker had seemingly "vanished." He had left SLB. Sisler/team officials had no idea where he was.
For sure I go nuts over a pristine vintage card but one like this makes me *feel* significance of baseball in our culture more than a "10": the *only* reason it survived, despite the insults of time, was b/c of what it *meant* to those who held onto it. I couldn't love it more!
@SkrticX @Cleveland_PL In 1,282 lifetime ABs, Feller batted .151 with 8 HRs, plus 99 runs and 99 RBI. His best season for hitting was 1949, with a .236 average in 72 ABs, 2-1-2 [D-T-HR], and .375 SLG.
