1957
The Dodgers buy a 44-passenger twin-engine airplane for $775,000, which they will use to transport the club during the season. They are the first team to own their own plane.
I'm looking for a photo of a 1957 twin-engine airliner. But, I can only find fighter planes and am pretty sure the Dodgers did not fly around in formation.
1886
Having waited in vain for the $1,000 check from the Baltimore club, St. Louis owner Chris Von Der Ahe takes $1,000 from Pittsburgh for the rights to Sam Barkley, ignoring the fact that the infielder has already signed with the Orioles.
I've tried ignoring facts. It doesn't work.
