Tom McBride from the Chronology

Jul 2, 1948 - The Senators beat the Yankees‚ 2-1‚ in 12 innings as Walt Masterson allows 3 hits and goes all the way for the win. Tom McBride makes 12 putouts to set the AL record for PO in LF in extra innings. The Yanks drop 2 games behind 1st-place Cleveland and 1 1/2 games behind the A's.

Aug 4, 1945 - Tom McBride of the Boston Red Sox drives in ML-record tying 6 runs in the 4th inning of the 2nd game of a doubleheader against the Senators‚ as the Sox score 12 runs. He doubles and triples off Santiago Ullrich and Joe Cleary‚ each time with the bases loaded. The Sox bat around against Cleary‚ who gives up 7 runs on 5 hits and 3 walks. Cleary‚ the last major leaguer born in Ireland‚ gets one out‚ on a strikeout‚ but this is his only ML appearance and he'll finish with a 189. ERA. The Senators then call on Bert Shepard‚ who remarkably pitches 5 1/3 innings giving up one run on 3 hits. For Shepard‚ who was wounded in WW2 and lost a leg‚ this too will be his only major league appearance. The Sox win‚ 15-4.

Jul 6, 1944 - At Fenway‚ Tex Hughson (13-3) benefits from 20 Red Sox hits to coast to a 13-3 win over the Tigers.

Veteran Sox left fielder Bob Johnson hits for the cycle and scores 4 runs before giving way in the 7th to rookie Tom McBride.
