1921 | The Indians and Yankees combined to hit 16 doubles, establishing a new American League record. The Tribe, with nine of the two-baggers, beat the Bronx Bombers in Cleveland's League Park, 17-8. |
1945 | At Philadelphia's Shibe Park, the A's and Tigers play the second-longest game in major league history, with the 24-inning contest ending in a 1-1 tie. Detroit right-hander Les Mueller pitches 19.2 innings in the four-hour and 48-minute marathon, the longest outing since 1921 when George Uhle tossed twenty innings to earn victory against losing pitcher Ted Lyons, who went the distance in the Indians' 6-5 win over the White Sox in the 21-innings contest. |
2004 | Mark Buehrle faces the minimum 27 batters as the White Sox rout the Indians, 14-0. The 25-year-old southpaw, throwing just ninety pitches, allows only two hits, with both runners erased due to a double play. |
