Unusual Inning Mirrors Baseball Prowess of Hamilton
In a 1913 Tale of the Diamond, Earl Hamilton of the St Louis Browns delivers a peculiar inning against the New York Americans. He retires Sweeney with the first ball, hit Sweeney in ribs, then nails McConnell and McMillan with the first pitch, loading the bases without a ball or strike or a base hit. Manager Stovall pulls Hamilton. Allison on the first pitch hits a liner to short, Bobby Wallace makes a superb catch and doubles the runner at second to end the inning. A remarkable sequence in major league play.
