6/10/1921 – Ty Cobb’s Tigers were in Washington completing a series against the Senators. Before the game, Cobb changed his lineup by reversing Harry Heilmann and Bobby Veach. However, the skipper failed to tell the players of this switch. In the top of the first inning, Heilmann batted in Veach’s spot and hit a two-run home run to left field. Umpire Billy Evans declared Heilmann out. When Veach finally got to bat in the fourth inning, he homered to right. There was also a Washington runner called out for coach’s interference later in the game. The Tigers won, 6-3.

With Minnesota leading 7 – 4 in the bottom of the 4th, Terry Felton relieves Twins starter Brad Havens. Felton leaves in the bottom of the 6th with one out, runners on first and second and his team clinging to a 7 – 6 lead. Both runners score and by the time the Royals are through, instead of his first major league win, Felton ends up charged with his 16th (and final) career loss. Kansas City wins royally, 18 – 7, one of the biggest comebacks of the decade. John Pacella, who takes over in the 8th, surrenders back-to-back dingers, tosses two wild pitches, and allows six runs. Willie Aikens adds a pair of homers for KC.
