TIGERS TAKE 3 OF 4 AT THE COYLE
The kind of line score that drives managers nuts. Detroit wins, despite Senators outhitting Tigers 12-6. Three unearned runs in 6th make the difference. Trout gets the W, Newberry the SV.

Today’s #1947League game brought to you by Cab Calloway and the Nicholas Brothers.
Calloway: sui generis.
As Josh Gibson was to Babe Ruth, the Nicholas Brothers were to Gene Kelly/Fred Astaire. AL/NL wasn’t the only place where excellence didn’t mean you made the big time.

Together with John Britton, today’s #1947League hero Jimmy Newberry did something in 1952 that no Black player had done before. What was it?

BROWNS TOP TRIBE IN EXTRAS
Dean blew a 2-run lead and the SV in the 9th, which basically led to another game. Rusty Peters stroked the walk-off GWRBI with a single in the bottom of the 16th for St. Louis. Booker McDaniel got the W.

Chuck Berry and the Beautiful Shufflers celebrate the Browns’ extra-inning walk-off. The win puts them half a game in front of the Yankees in the seemingly endless game of LeapFrog that is the American division of #1947League.
