wilhelm-1959 triple play

On May 10, 1960, Baltimore Orioles catcher Joe Ginsberg ties a major league record set only six days earlier by allowing three passed balls in one inning. With knuckleballing Hoyt Wilhelm on the mound, Ginsberg struggles through a fitful inning, matching the recent record set by teammate Gus Triandos.

Dick Williams of the A’s belts a grand slam, as the American League record of three in one day in one league is tied for the second time in 16 days. Williams also doubles in a 9-run 5th inning. Kansas City beats Baltimore, 10 – 0.
