Elmer Smith sets the record recording 7 straight extra base hits

Browns pitcher Urban Shocker takes his first loss after winning nine in a row. Elmer Smith’s two home runs pace a 10 – 5 Indians win in a morning game to back Guy Morton’spitching. In the afternoon game, a 12 – 8 St. Louis win, Smith starts off with another homer. Having hit one in Detroit the day before, Smith has seven straight extra base hits in three games – a major league record – for 22 total bases (3 doubles, four home runs, in addition to two walks). Earl Sheely, in 1926, will have seven long hits in just two games, but he will sandwich those around a sacrifice fly.
