This Day In Baseball

On June 22, 1903 At the Polo Grounds, a crowd of 19,000 is on hand for the twin bill with Chicago; Iron Joe McGinnity wins the opener, 5 – 4, in 10 innings, over Jack Taylor. But Chicago takes the nightcap, scoring six runs against Christy Mathewson in the 9th inning to enable Jock Menefee to pick up a win, 10 – 6. Matty gives up 13 hits and 10 runs in losing his 4th game of the year.
