Hank Majeski of the Athletics hits six doubles in a doubleheader against the Browns, pacing the dogged A’s to wins of 6 – 0 and 9 – 1. He is the third American League player to collect six long hits in an afternoon and just the second to do it in two regulation length games. Hal McRae, on the same date in 1974, will do it next in the AL.
