1925 – After losing Game One by a 6 – 3 score to the Phils, the Giants unload in a nitecap, a 24 – 9 shelling. The hits keep coming – 30 to be exact in a record 58 at-bats – at the Baker Bowl. Four New Yorkers each collect four hits apiece, while a major league record-tying ten batters collect two hits each. Doc Farrell (2 for 3) who takes over for Travis Jackson at short in the 6th is the 10th. Ex-Phil Bob Meusel drives home nine runs, while rookie Fred Fitzsimmons allows 14 hits, including homers by Cy Williams, Johnny Mokanand Hal Carlson in the 8th frame. Phils starter Art Decatur is the loser.
