9/15/1944 – The announced lineup for the White Sox in St. Louis had Eddie Carnett batting fifth and Guy Curtwright following Carnett. However, the official lineup card handed to HP Umpire Joe Rue showed the two players reversed. In the top of the first, Wally Moses singled, Roy Schalk sacrificed Moses to second and Ralph Hodgin flied out. Hal Trosky was walked intentionally and Carnett singled to left, scoring Moses. On the throw home, Hodgin advanced to third and Carnett to second. Browns manager Luke Sewell talked to umpire Rue, with the latter calling out Curtwright and nullifying the run. The Browns won the game, 5 to 1.

George Stirnweiss of the Yankees gets 3 hits on the final day to raise his batting average to .309. The White Sox’s games are washed out, depriving the veteran Tony Cuccinello of a shot at the batting title. The only other .300 hitter playing full time is Johnny Dickshot. Neither Cuccinello nor Dickshot will ever play another game in the majors. Only Elmer Flick in 1905 and Carl Yastrzemski in 1968 ever lead the American League with a lower average than Stirnweiss, but the latter also leads the league with 195 hits, 107 runs, 22 triples, 301 total bases, 33 stolen bases, and a .476 slugging percentage.
