Today in Baseball History - June 27th
1911
hitting a 'warm-up' pitch homer, but the event causes a rule
change. Warm-up pitches no longer end when a player steps into
the box.
1930
oldest player to hit a home run in major league history. The A's
pitcher is nine days shy of his 47th birthday when he connects
for the solo shot.
1940
Norworth Day is celebrated at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn. Norworth
or his partner Albert Von Tilzer, who wrote the music, had never
seen a game when they created the song in 1908.
1964
meningitis. A year later the Jasper, Texas native will make the
All-Star team.
1967
rack after being struck out by Sam McDowell. The future Hall of
Famer (1980) will miss 28 games for the second place Tigers.
1972
League debut for the Yankees is an inauspicious one, as the
Tigers go deep three consecutive times in the first frame. The
opening inning home runs by Aurelio Rodriguez, Al Kaline and
Willie Horton power Detroit over New York, 5-2.
1973
pitches four innings of no-hit relief against the Phillies to
get the save for starter George Stone as the Mets beat the
Phillies, 7-6. A few hours earlier the 25-year old right-handed
reliever had attended his dad’s funeral in Illinois.
1977
homers in one inning twice in his career. The Giants' first
baseman first accomplished the feat on 4/12/73.
1980
Giants at the Stick, 8-0. Shortstop Bill Russell's errant first
inning throw deprives the southpaw a perfect game.
1982
as the team defeats the Reds, 2-0.
1984
Baker is unstoppable on the base paths as he steals second,
third and home in the Giants 12-9 victory over the Reds at
Candlestick Park.
1986
thrown out four times trying to steal a base. The second
baseman's futile attempts doesn't matter when the Giants beat
Cincinnati, 7-6, in the 12-inning contest played at Riverfront
Stadium.
1987
five runs helping to defeat the Indians, 13-3.
1993
straight decision as the Cardinals beat the Mets, 5-3.
2008
Carlos Delgado, with a double, three-run homer and a grand slam,
establishes a new team record with 9 RBIs in one game. The first
baseman, who breaks Dave Kingman’s 1976 club mark, also
surpasses Sky King on the all-time home run list with the first
of his two homers, moving into 34th place with his 443rd career
round-tripper.

June 27, 1922 - Catcher and future Hall of Famer, Ray Schalk
becomes the first White Sox player to hit for the cycle when he

Navin Field in Detroit.

June 27, 1958 - On a Friday night at Comiskey Park, White Sox
pitcher Billy Pierce came within an out of a perfect game. With
two outs in the ninth inning, the Washington Senators
pinch-hitter Ed Fitz Gerald doubled down the first base line.
Pierce shook off the missed perfect game as he struck out the
next hitter to end the game as the White Sox win 3- 0.

I'm pretty sure that I used to have a baseball card of Ken
Harrelson, circa 68-69, and the fun fact on the back read:
Hawk owns no less than 16 pastel leisure suits.

Today In White Sox History - June 28th
June 28, 2006 - Losing to the White Sox, 4-3, the Pirates set a
team record with their 13th consecutive defeat. The 1939 Bucs
had held the dubious mark losing 12 in row during their 68-85
sixth place finish in the National League.
June 28, 2010 - The Cubs place Carlos Zambrano on the restricted
list after the right-hander is suspended for three games for his
recent dugout tirade when he had to be separated from teammate
Derrek Lee in the visitors' dugout after surrendering four runs
to the White Sox in the bottom of the first inning at U.S.
Cellular Field. The excitable hurler is scheduled be evaluated
by doctors mutually selected by Major League Baseball and the
players' union.

season, but because there is no ligament damage to his elbow,
the prognosis for next season is optimistic.

June 28, 1993 - In the first of what would become a series of
major public relations disasters, the White Sox release Carlton
Fisk on the road in Cleveland. Fisk accompanied the team to Ohio
only to be told of his release before the game. No question,
Fisk was finished as a player but the fans and media were
outraged at the way the Sox handled the situation. In fact, the
White Sox sent faxes to the media announcing the move, not even
having the courtesy to hold a press conference. Fisk had to say
his goodbyes to his former teammates from the stands at
Municipal Stadium during that evening’s game before returning to
Chicago.
Fisk and Donn Pall would than later be denied access to the Sox
clubhouse to wish their former teammates well before the 1st
game of the A.L.C.S. that October exacerbating the situation.
