1926 – The Braves are at Ebbets Field with Brooklyn’s Hank DeBerry on third base, Dazzy Vance on second, and Chick Fewster on first. Babe Herman drives the ball against the right field wall, and DeBerry scores. Vance holds up, then rounds third headed for home. Fewster stops at third base. The RF throws home and traps Vance, who heads back to third. Herman slides into the base as Fewster steps off.
