Cleveland’s Johnny Allen has his 12-game win streak snapped by the Red Sox.

On July 25, 1938 — Cleveland’s Johnny Allen has his 12-game win streak snapped by the Red Sox. In a makeup game from May 10.

Bobby Doerr drives in a run and another score when Ken Keltner makes a throwing error and Jimmie Foxx hit his 27th home run of the season in the seventh-inning would give the Red Sox 4-0 lead to cap the games scoring over the second-place Cleveland Indians in the first game of a doubleheader.

Boston pitcher Emerson Dickman would go the distance for the three-hit shutout and striking out three while only walking one batter to improve his seasonal record to 5-2.

Cleveland pitcher Johnny Allen would take only his second loss of the season as he entered the game with a 12-1 record and 27-2 going back to last year (15-1), unfortunately, Allen would have a rough go at it in August going 0-6 with a 8.12 ERA, he would finish the season with a 14-8 record.

Milwaukee beats the Indians, 2 – 1, on Dave May’s walkoff home run in the bottom of the 17th inning

May 15, 1973

To get a rental increase from their Sportsman’s Park’s tenants, the Browns move to evict the Cardinals. The Redbirds accuse the owners of breaking the lease, and as the season approaches, it is uncertain where the National League team will play its home games.

March 1, 1949

The White Sox hold a 4 – 3 lead over the Mets with two outs in the 9th inning, but manage to blow it in the most embarrassing fashion, after Daniel Murphy hits a routine pop-up in front of the mound. 2B Gordon Beckhamcomes charging in, trips on P Addison Reed’s foot and falls to the ground, in the process bowling over 3B Conor Gillaspie, who is positioned under the ball. The ball drops to the ground and rolls away from Reed while David Wright takes advantage of the confusion to score all the way from second base and tie the game. Luckily, the Sox manage to score a run off LaTroy Hawkins in the bottom of the inning to escape with a 5 – 4 win and save a little face.
