John H.Jodi,
The six balls on the 1952 Topps Gus Zernial card signify that he hit six homeruns in three consecutive games in 1951.
Steve,
Who was the HOF'er that lost that 10-8 game to Mathewson? Also, Mathewson stayed in the big leagues as the Reds manager until he went off to war so he wasn't actually "out" of baseball after that game.
