Roznovsky Hits His First Pinch Homer for Orioles
Vic Roznovsky, reserve catcher for the Baltimore Orioles, hit a pinch homer in the right field bleachers off Lee Stange after Baltimore fell behind 1 2. Boog Powell added a pinch homer as the Orioles beat Boston 3 2 in 12 innings with Russ Snyder driving in the deciding run on a bases loaded single. Roznovsky, a rare journeyman, discussed his unlikely path from Shiner Texas to the majors, explaining he was signed after a Pirates tryout and later became a catcher with the Giants and Cubs before joining Baltimore.
