Baseball History for September 14

Complete entry for September 14 at BaseballLibrary.com HERE.

Highlighted entry is:

1968
Denny McLain becomes the first 30-game winner since Dizzy Dean in 1934, as the Tigers beat the A's 5–4. Reggie Jackson's homer in the 4th puts the A' s ahead 2–0 but Norm Cash answers with a 3-run shot. Reggie hits another in the 6th, but the Tigers push across two in the 9th to win. Kaline, pinch hitting for McLain, walks and scores the tying run. Denny (30–5) gives up six hits and strikes out 10.

A 30-win season is one of those things that may never happen again.
