Aug 22, 1936 - Washington ties an AL record when Red Kress‚ Joe Kuhel‚ and Carl Reynolds hit HRs in the 4th inning off the A's Gordon Rhodes. Rhodes takes the loss‚ one of his league-leading 20 he'll have this year. The Nats collect 20 hits in winning‚ 12-8‚ in the first of 2. The Mackman take the nitecap‚ 7-6.

Jun 16, 1936 - At Detroit‚ Carl Reynolds wallops a pinch homer in the 10th inning with 2 men on and Washington holds on to beat the Tigers‚ 9-8. The loss leaves Detroit tied for 4th with the Nats.

Jun 8, 1935 - In the lidlifter in Boston‚ Lou Gehrig is 3-for-3 with 4 RBIs to lead New York to a 13-6 win.

Lefty Gomez walks 8 and wild pitches home 2 runs to help lose his 7th.

May 6, 1934 - The Red Sox score 12 runs in the 4th inning‚ helped along by a record-tying 4 consecutive triples hit by Carl Reynolds‚ Moose Solters‚ Rick Ferrell‚ and Bucky Walters‚ to beat Detroit 14-4.

Dec 14, 1933 - The Browns acquire OF Smead Jolley‚ P Ivy Andrews‚ and $40‚000 from the Red Sox for Carl Reynolds. St. Louis then sends Jolley‚ plus SS Jim Levey‚ and P Wally Hebert to Hollywood (PCL) for SS Alan Strange. Strange will go to Washington for veteran SS Lyn Lary before the end of the season. Levey‚ meanwhile‚ will return east in the Fall to join the Pittsburgh Steelers‚ where he will play halfback for 3 seasons.

Dec 14, 1932 - The Senators swap Sammy West‚ Carl Reynolds‚ and Lloyd Brown‚ along with $20‚000‚ to the Browns for former Senator Goose Goslin‚ lefthander Walter "Lefty" Stewart‚ and OF Fred Schulte. They also get Earl Whitehill from Detroit for Firpo Marberry and Carl Fischer.

Jul 4, 1932 - In Washington‚ Yankees C Bill Dickey breaks Carl Reynolds' jaw with a punch‚ sidelining the Senators OF indefinitely. Reynolds bowls over Dickey on a successful squeeze play in the nitecap. Dickey is suspended for 30 days-supposedly the length of Reynolds' recuperation-and assessed a $1‚000 fine. Reynolds is hitting over .360 but will end the season at .305. The Senators take both games from the league-leaders‚ winning‚ 5-3 and 12-6. There are 5 homers in the nitecap‚ as Ruth‚ Lary‚ Crosetti‚ Manush and Harris connect.

Dec 4, 1931 - Bump Hadley‚ Jackie Hayes‚ and Sad Sam Jones are traded from Washington to the White Sox for Carl Reynolds and John Kerr.

Aug 25, 1931 - At Chicago‚ the Yankees record their first shutout of the season when Herb Pennock blanks the White Sox‚ 6-0. Ben Chapman has a good day with a triple‚ single‚ 2 runs scored and his 50th and 51st stolen bases of the year. In addition‚ he beats the Sox Carl Reynolds in a pre-game 100-yard dash.

Aug 31, 1930 - With a chance to pick up a game and a half on the leading Cubs‚ the Giants edge the Braves 4-3 in the opener a doubleheader before 40‚000 fans at the Polo Grounds. In the 2nd game‚ Mel Ott hits a double and 3 consecutive HRs to drive in 6 runs‚ but the Braves counter with a homer by George Sisler and two by slugging rookie Wally Berger among their 18 hits. Ott is the 4th major leaguer to hit 3 straight homers‚ joining Goose Goslin (August 19‚ 1930) Carl Reynolds (July 2‚ 1930)‚ George Kelly (September 17‚ 1923)‚ and Cap Anson (August 6‚ 1884). The final score is Boston 14‚ New York‚ 10.

Jul 12, 1930 - The visiting Yankees use a 6-run rally in the 8th inning to beat the White Sox‚ 11-6‚ and gain a split on the day. Chicago wins the opener‚ 11-7. In the 2nd game‚ the Sox score 4 in the 7th‚ but reliever Red Ruffing stops the attack. Leading off the 8th inning‚ Ruffing sails a homer into the RF stands to start the New York rally. Babe Ruth‚ his 3 day suspension over‚ collects three singles in the two games. The New York Times reports that "during lulls in the activity‚ small children raced out into left field to shake hands with him‚ provoking the umpires' displeasure." The hitting honors for the day belong to Chicago's Carl Reynolds with seven hits‚ including two doubles and a homer. His three-run homer in the first game occurs when Harry Rice can't hold his long fly ball‚ then overthrows 3B. Smead Jolley adds a homer and triple in the opener as Chicago unloads ten runs in three innings to back Ted Lyons pitching.

Jul 2, 1930 - Carl Reynolds of the White Sox hits 3 consecutive HRs in three consecutive innings (the 1st‚ 2nd and 3rd)-just the 2nd player to do so-and drives home 8 runs in the 2nd game of a doubleheader at Yankee Stadium. The Sox win‚ 15-4. Two of the HRs are hit inside-the-park‚ in the 1st and 3rd innings. The feat is second-billed‚ as headlines tell of Ruth tearing a nail off his finger on the OF screen trying for Reynolds' 2nd homer. In the opener‚ Ruth has 2 hits‚ including his 31st homer in the Yanks 5-1 win. Roy Sherid allows just 3 Sox hits.

Jul 3, 1929 - Chicago's Carl Reynolds swipes home in the 10th inning against the Indians as the Sox score 3 to win‚ 6-3. Wes Ferrell is the losing pitcher against reliever McKain.
