Jul 6, 1956 - Unlikely slugger Jim Busby of the Indians hits his 2nd grand slam in as many days as the Tribe beats the A's 4-2. Busby is the first to slam in consecutive games since Jimmie Foxx in 1940 and just the 5th this century.

Jul 5, 1956 - At Detroit‚ the Tigers‚ after losing 14 straight games at home since June 15‚ explode for a 13-7 win over Cleveland. The Indians start strong with a first inning grand slam by Jim Busby‚ but Frank Lary allows just 4 other hits‚ including a Rosen 3-run homer in the 6th.

Apr 17, 1956 - The White Sox‚ losers of their last 10 exhibition games‚ edge the visiting Indians‚ 2-1‚ on Bob Lemon's bases-loaded walk. Jim Busby‚ traded by the Sox over the winter‚ accounts for the only Tribe tally with a home run.

Oct 25, 1955 - The White Sox trade Chico Carrasquel and Jim Busby to the Indians for Larry Doby.

Jun 7, 1955 - The White Sox reacquire speedster CF Jim Busby from the Senators for C Clint Courtney‚ OF Johnny Groth‚ and P Bob Chakales.

May 30, 1954 - The Senators and A's pslit a pair‚ with the Nats taking the opener‚ 6-0‚ behind the pitching of Muary McDermott‚ who bats 6th. He goes 0-for-4‚ but Wayne Terwilliger‚ the 9th hitter‚ homers in the 9th. Jim Busby scores on 3 errors: he reaches base on a E by Jim Fionigan‚ steals 2B and Billy Shantz's throw goes into the OF. Vic Power's relay throw goes into the grandstand. Mickey Vernon has a homer in both games for Washington‚ which loses the nitecap 6-5 on Ed McGhee's pinch double with the bases loaded in the 9th inning.

May 30, 1952 - Over the protests of manager Paul Richards‚ White Sox GM Frank Lane swaps fleet CF Jim Busby‚ along with Mel Hoderlein‚ to Washington for Sam Mele. Busby's loss leaves a defensive hole in the outfield‚ which the Sox will fill when they acquire Jim Rivera in July.
