7/26/1928 – The Reds batted out of turn in the ninth inning at Philadelphia and scored the game-winning runs during that frame. In the eighth inning, Pinky Pittinger had pinch run for Bubbles Hargrave (in the seventh spot in the lineup) and remained in the game. In the top of the ninth, the Reds had one run in and two runners on when it was Pittinger’s turn to bat. Val Picinich, who had entered the game in the eighth spot in the previous half inning, strode to the plate instead of Pittinger. After Picinich fouled out, the proper batter, Pittinger, was called out. Now it really was Picinich’s turn. Instead, Pid Purdy pinch hit for Picinich and walked.

1927 – Leading 1 – 0 and one out from a complete game no-hitter over the Memphis Red Sox, Chicago American Giants pitcher Webster McDonald allows an unearned run to score on errors, tying the game at 1 – 1 in a Negro National League game. McDonald loses the no-hitter in the 10th when he surrenders a single, and he loses the game, 2 – 1, when the Red Sox score in the 11th on back-to-back doubles. McDonald’s near-classic just misses being part of the only back-to-back no-hitters in Negro Leagues history, as teammate Willie Powell had no-hit the Red Sox the day before.
