It was on this date back in 1953 that, against five different pitchers, Jimmy Piersall ties a major league record going 6-for-6 when Boston bombs the Browns in the first game of a doubleheader at Sportsman's Park, 11-2 The Red Sox right fielder is held hitless in the nightcap, and is sent sprawling to the ground by Satchel Paige, a pitcher he had infuriated during a game in his rookie season by mimicing the right-hander's every move.


A true one of a kind original............:loco2:
