DAY, CARDS TOP BUMS
Leon got the W, scored what turned out to be the winning run as St. Louis bounced back from yesterday's loss to Brooklyn. Day:10 wins, .295, 16 RBI.
Dodgers ace Branca collided with Kurowski while trying to break up a DP. Out 10.

Malicious! Kurowski should be suspended!

To be fair, Branca went in hard.
🙂
He misses two starts. A big deal, potentially.

People ask us: Are we scared of the AI at #1947League? Hell no!
We love dice, we love physical cards, we love scribbling out handmade scoresheets. But we ain't LUDDITES, dammit!
Today's Cardinals W brought to you by #GRATEFULDEAD and YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD HAL 9000 UNIT!

Frequently compared to Satchel Paige, Leon Day may have had the edge over Satch in '47 because he was a daily player.
Name a position he played as a regular when he wasn't the starting pitcher.
One guess.

You are correct, Ruth! 🙂
What would you like to hear?

In honour of Leon Day’s other position, how about the incorrectly-spelled “Centerfield” by the correct John Fogerty?

YES!

JESSUP ONE-HITS BUMS
Gentry Jessup allowed a third-inning home run to Jackie Robinson... and that was it in the base-hit department. Cards take 3 out of 4 from Brooklyn at home, winning a pitching-heavy series.

Today's #1947League game brought to you by @RuthODay , #JohnFogerty, and a video every #baseball fan on earth should watch at least once a year.

In 1946, Gentry Jessup was the pitcher of record in a 3-3 tie game between the Chicago American Giants and the Indianapolis Clowns. Within three innings, tell me: How many innings did he pitch?
One guess only.

16?

Not 16, @tabletopmania and that is not within 3

Other-end-of-the-bell-curve strategy fails @RuthODay -- not 1, sorry

That’s okay, Yusuf: there are far better hitters in the lineup behind me who are narrowing down your location.

May 12, 1946. Longest game ever played in the #NegroLeagues *: Gentry Jessup and Peanuts Davis EACH pitch 20 innings!
Box score of one of the most remarkable pitching duels in #majorleague history. American Giants & Clowns log a marathon 3-3 tie.

The 20-inning pitcher's duel between Gentry Jessup and Peanuts Davis is further proof-- as though any were needed-- that you and I only got half of America's #baseball history growing up. The least interesting half.
Here's the SABR article on that astonishing May 12, 1946 game:

#1947League expanded standings. Yanks, Browns tied for first in American.
Phils just 1.5 ahead of Bums in National. Silvio Garcia's Braves have won 9 in a row.
Next up: Cool Papa Bell and the red-hot Tigers, winners of 5 straight, visit the Coyle for a four-game set with the last-place Senators.

Off day for #1947League. Catch you tomorrow!
