9/16/1949 – The New York Giants were at Wrigley Field to play the Cubs. In the bottom of the tenth inning, the Cubs batted out of turn and, when the Giants did not realize the mistake, the Cubs scored the winning run! The Cubs had runners on first and third with two outs when relief pitcher Bob Rush, in the eighth spot in the order, should have come to the plate. There was a “double switch” after Emil Verban pinch ran for Smoky Burgess in the ninth and remained in the game at second base and in the ninth place in the order. Verban came to the plate to hit ahead of Rush and walked to load the bases. The Giants failed to speak up. Mickey Owen then pinch hit and singled in the winning run. Once a pitch was made to Owen, the Giants lost the ability to speak up about Verban. Due to not complaining about Verban, the #9 hitter, the correct next batter was the #1 hitter, Bob Ramazzotti, so Owen was hitting in the lead off slot. The cellar-dwelling Cubs won, 5-4.

8/12/1895 – In the top of the first in a game at Boston, The Washington Nationals had two on and two out when the proper number five hitter was Win Mercer. However, Bill Hassamaer, tbe number six hitter, came up out of order. After he fouled off a pitch, Boston pointed out the mistake to the umpire, George Burnham. He called Mercer out to end the inning, but since the Hassamaer at bat was not completed, that was incorrect. He should have allowed Mercer to bat taking on the current count. Washington played the game under protest, and Boston won 4-3 in ten innings. The National League upheld the protest and ruled that the game did not count and had to be replayed.
