The Man

Stan Musial played really well sixty-six years ago today. He hit five home runs in a double header in St. Louis against the Giants.

Poor Hank Sauer. He hit three home runs that day, and probably thought he was the toast of the game until he saw Musial’s lines.

In the stands, watching the game, was Nate Colbert, who would tie the record for most home runs in a double header with five on August 1, 1972.
