On September 7, 1974 — Graig Nettles will be suspended for ten days after stuffing his bat with six superballs, that are collected by Tigers catcher Bill Freehan when the piece of lumber is shattered on a disallowed infield hit. The Yankee third baseman, who said the doctored bat was given to him by a fan in Chicago, hit a home run in his first at-bat for the game’s only run in Larry Gura’s’ 1-0 Yankee victory over Detroit at Shea Stadium.
