toby harrah

October 4, 1986, At Arlington Stadium, Texas Ranger Toby Harrah Ks for the 2nd out in the bottom of the 9th against Vern Ruhle, pitching for the Angels. That’s the last time anyone from the 1961-71 Washington Senators played in MLB. The Angels win the game 2-0. John Candelaria gets the win pitching the first 6 innings, both Angel runs come on Brian Downings double in the second.

Harrah debuted in 1969, and then returned in a full time role in 1971 the last year the Senators played in Washington. They will move to Texas the following season and Harrah will play 11 of his 17 years for the Ranger/Senator franchise.

In an interview aired on MSNBC, Barry Bonds said he is prepared to boycott his induction, when elected, into the Hall of Fame if the museum accepts the ball he hit for his record-breaking 756th career home run marked with a permanent asterisk. Fashion designer Marc Ecko, who bought the historic sphere for $752,467, released the results of an internet poll he conducted on www.vote756.com, in which nearly half the fans (47%) voted in favor of sending it to Cooperstown after branding the ball.

1925 – In a doubleheader split with the Braves in St. Louis, the Cards’ player-manager, Rogers Hornsby, hits his 38th and 39th home runs of the year, along with a single, double, and triple to push his average to .403. In batting practice tomorrow, Hornsby will foul a ball off his foot splitting his toenail, and will sit the last three games. The Rajah calls reporters into the clubhouse to view his bloody toe, “because some of those in the East may say I’m stallin’ because I want to save my .400 average.” Hornsby will be the only player-manager to win the triple crown, which he does by topping .400 for the 3rd time in four years, while his 39 home runs and 143 RBI are National League highs. His .756 slugging average will be the NL record until topped by Barry Bonds in 2001. The Cards take the opener, 6 – 5, and lose the nitecap, 7 – 6.
