The Senators send Goose Goslin to the Browns for Heinie Manush

On June 13 1930, The Washington Senators and St. Louis Browns trade future Hall of Fame outfielders. The Senators send Goose Goslin to the Browns in exchange for Heinie Manush, who will bat .362 over the balance of the season. The transaction marks the first time in major league history that former batting champions have been traded for one another. Both Hall of Fame outfielders won their titles in the American League, with Manush hitting .387 playing for the Tigers in 1926, and Goslin leading the circuit two years later with a .378 batting average for Washington.
