1941 – At Havana, the Brooklyn Dodgers roll over the Cleveland Indians, 15 – 0. Pee Wee Reese and Joe Medwick use a batting helmet designed by two Johns Hopkins Hospital doctors with the help of Larry MacPhail. The two Dodgers, victims of several hit by pitches last year, pronounce the helmets satisfactory. Brooklyn pitcher Van Lingle Mungo celebrates the victory a little too hard and when tomorrow’s game is rained out, he continues to party. The result is that manager Leo Durocher sends him a note informing he’s been reassigned to the Dodgers’ minor league camp in Macon, Georgia. Mungo will pitch just two innings for Brooklyn this year.

2017 – Short of infielders because of injuries, the Mets start catcher Travis d’Arnaud at third base in their game against the Yankees. However, as d’Arnaud has never played the position professionally, manager Terry Collinsdecides to switch him and starting second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera every time a right-handed batter comes up, in order to minimize the chance of a ball actually being hit towards the improvized infielder. The two end up exchanging positions 18 times as the Yankees prevail, 5 – 3, making for an unusual boxscore that reads “Cabrera 2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b” and “d’Arnaud 3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b-2b-3b”.
