FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»June 7, 1933:
In a slugfest in Philadelphia, the Senators break a 13-13 tie by scoring a run in the 10th off reliever Ray Coombs, nephew of Jack Coombs. The rookie is spared a loss when rain washes out the game in the bottom of the 10th, and the score reverts. Coombs will not pitch again until July 8th when he makes his "official" ML debut.
»June 8, 1933: Welcome to the Bigs. A's pitcher Bobby Coombs gives up a homer to his first ML batter, but Jimmie Foxx homers in his first three at bats, as the A's outscore the Yankees 14–10. He had homered his last time up the previous day to give him four consecutive home runs.
