Baseball Showers Giants With 11-Run Inning in 1906
The Cubs erupt for 11 runs in the first inning against Christy Mathewson and Joe McGinnity, then dominate New York 194. Historic notes recount Johnny Allen leaving the mound in 1938 after umpire Bill McGowan sought to cut off a dangling sleeve, Allen fined, and the shirt ending up in the Hall of Fame. In 1950, Boston Red Sox hammer the St. Louis Browns 20-4, with 23 hits, and promise an even bigger beating the next day.

Seattle boss recalls 1957 home run memory
Dick Williams, manager with 1 423 career victories, recalled his May 18 1957 homer on the last pitch of a curfew game during a Baltimore visit. Williams, back in Baltimore this week, noted the homer helped him move to 15th on the all time list ahead of Al Lopez. The memory clash arose from conflicting pitch count details in Orioles files.
