    Cliff Fannin, “Two Losses, Two Leagues, One Day” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com Quite a few pitchers have lost two games in one day, but not many can say they lost two games in two different leagues on the same day. Howev- er on May 26, 1952, 28-year-old right-hander Cliff Fannin however defies the odds and does just that. In an American League game that begins on April 20, Fannin is the start- ing pitcher for Rogers Hornsby’s St. Louis Browns in a Sunday afternoon tilt against the visiting Chicago White Sox. The Louisa, Kentucky native allows three runs on five hits in 2 2/3 innings and leaves the game trail- ing 3-0. The game is eventually suspended in the bottom of the seventh inning because of darkness with the Pale Hose ahead 10-2. Three weeks later, on May 15, saddled with a 9.31 ERA while allowed 21 hits in 9 2/3 innings, Fannin, along with pitcher Bob Mahoney and catcher Darrell Johnson, is one of three players sent to the San Antonio Missions of the Texas (AA) League. Cliff Fannin’s 1950 Bowman card No. 106 The suspended Browns/White Sox contest is resumed in St. Louis on is worth $8.00 in near-mint condition May 26, prior to that day’s regularly scheduled game. Chicago eventu- ally records a 10-5 victory, with Fannin absorbing the last of his 51 major league losses. Loss No. 1 Sportsman Park, St. Louis, Missouri Meanwhile, 780 miles to the Southwest in San Antonio, Fannin starts the nightcap of a Texas League doubleheader with the visiting Shreveport Sports.
