SCHOTT 1915–Babe Ruth’s First Major League Homer Was Against the Yankees On Thursday May 6, 1915, Boston Red Sox rookie lefty pitcher Babe Ruth hit the first of his 714 major league Babe Ruth, the Red Sox home runs. He hit it in the Polo Grounds in New York rookie lefthander, hit his first off a Yankees righthander named Jack Warhop. In the years before Yankee Stadium was built the Yankees big league homer in the city rented the stadium from the Giants for their home games. Here’s the way The New York Times described in which he would later Ruth’s first homer: earn fame and fortune. For Boston, the big left handed pitcher, Babe Ruth, was He hit it in the Polo all that a pitcher is supposed to be and some more. He put his team into the running in the third inning by Grounds against the New smashing a mighty rap into the upper tier of the right field grand stand.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).
