A collage of baseball trivia cites Lou Stringer’s four errors in his 1941 Cubs debut and Frank Lane’s uniform changes with the Cardinals and past pinstripe moves by the White Sox Senators and Phillies. Other notes recount Ray Schalk’s fielding, Gil Hodges returning to a closed stance, Dick Fowler’s seven putouts in a 12 inning 1949 game, Carl Furillo and Roy Campanella joking about ages, Johnny Allen’s 1937 win loss record, Milwaukee Braves’ open attendance record, Russ Meyer’s temper and Mesa drills, and a note on Chicago Milwaukee triples in 1901 and Cincinnati’s air conditioned dugouts.
