8/9/1923 – In the top of the ninth inning in St. Louis, the Giants’ Frank Snyder pinch hit for relief pitcher Jack Bentley in the ninth spot in the order. Snyder remained in the game as the catcher and the new pitcher, Jack Scott, entered the game in the eighth place in the order where the previous catcher had been. The seventh-place hitter, Travis Jackson, ended the tenth inning by grounding out. Scott should have started the eleventh inning but the Giants confused the order when Snyder batted in that place. Snyder singled to left and Hugh McQuillan ran for him. Then Scott, also out of order, singled to left. Both runners eventually scored and the Giants seemed to have the game in hand because the Cardinals did not protest the batting order. Alex Gaston entered the game as the new catcher in the ninth spot in the order and the Redbirds tied the game in the bottom of the eleventh. In the twelfth and fifteenth innings, Gaston and Scott batted in reverse order but both made outs in each case. The Cardinals never noticed the reversal since they were batting in the order that the defensive positions had been listed at the start of the game. St. Louis finally won, 13-12, in the fifteenth inning. A total of 37 players and 12 pitchers played in the game.
