Jim Owens from the Chronology

May 4, 1963 - The Braves Bob Shaw shatters the existing balk record when he is called for 5 in a 7-5 loss to the Cubs. Shaw is penalized 3 times in the 3rd inning alone‚ tying the ML record set the previous week by Jim Owens.

Apr 21, 1963 - Cincinnati P Jim Owens sets a NL record as the first hurler in NL history charged with 3 balks in one inning (the 2nd) in a 7-0 loss at Los Angeles.

Jun 29, 1961 - With 3 round-trippers at Philadelphia-one a 10th-inning shot to win 8-7-Willie Mays becomes the 4th ML player with 3 or more HRs twice in one season. Manager Gene Mauch's efforts to conceal his starting pitcher and force Al Dark's hand has a Phillie lineup including hurlers Don Ferrarese (batting leadoff‚ playing CF)‚ Jim Owens (3rd‚ RF)‚ Chris Short (7th‚ C)‚ and Ken Lehman (9th‚ P) against San Francisco. When Dark sends lefty Billy O'Dell to the mound for one batter‚ Mauch replaces Ferrarese‚ Short and Owen. Dark then replaces Billy O'Dell with Sam Jones. Mauch replaces Lehman with Dallas Green after 2 batters. All the maneuvering takes 3 hours and 20 minutes. The Giants then take the nitecap‚ 4-1‚ as Mays triples and doubles home 2 runs and completes a DP with a throw home.

May 28, 1960 - At Forbes Field in the 8th inning‚ Clemente is on 3B and Smith on 1B with 2 outs‚ when Mazeroski fans on a ball that hits in the front of the plate. The ball then hits Umpire Al Barlick on the right knee and bounces back toward Phillies pitcher‚ Jim Owens. Maz doesn't move as Smith jogs to 2B. . Clemente races in from 3B then stops. Owens fields the ball and goes after Clemente ignoring pleas from the Phils' bench to simply throw to 1B. In the run-down‚ Clemente knocks the ball out of Jim Coker's glove and scores the tying run on the catcher's error (the photo has been widely published).. The Pirates win‚ 4-2 in the 13th on Don Hoak's 2-run HR.
