1926 – Trailing 6 – 3 at the end of eight innings, Brooklyn then makes nine hits and adds two walks to win going away, 12 – 6. A National League record five Brooklyn pinch hitters all deliver, including pinch hitter Dick Cox, who gets two hits, scores twice, and has two RBI in a 9-run 9th inning. Pinch hitter Moose Clabaugh bats twice in the 9th, collecting a hit: the six pinch hits set a major-league record and the three pinch runners scoring ties a mark set in 1900. The Phils use a record-tying five pitchers in the 9th with Wayland Dean taking the loss. The Phils are again paced by Cy Williams, who clubs two homers in his first two at-bats (three in a row), before striking out in his next.
