8/9/1929 – The Giants confused their batting order at the start of this game in the Polo Grounds. The order was supposed to be Doc Farrell third, Mel Ott fourth, Bill Terry fifth and Travis Jackson sixth. With two out in the first inning Terry came to the plate ahead of Ott and made the last out of the frame. Ott led off the second out of order but also made an out. Jackson then batted out of order and walked. The Reds never spoke up about this. In the third inning, Ott strode to the plate after Farrell singled. There was an outcry from the fans in the stands that he was batting out of turn. It was explained by Terry that manager John McGraw had reversed Ott and Terry in the lineup and that now they were hitting in the proper order.
