I just found the Cleveland Indians' 1929 home schedule printed in the 15 Feb 1929 edition of the Akron (OH) Beacon Journal. Here it is:
April
16, 17, 18, 19 - Detroit
20, 21, 22, 23 - Chicago
May
1, 2, 3 - St Louis
4, 5, 6 - Washington
7, 8, 9 - Boston
10, 11, 12 - Philadelphia
13, 14, 15 - New York
23, 24, 25, 26 - St Louis
June
16 - Philadelphia
19, 20, 22, 23 - Detroit
July
2, 3, 4 - Chicago
6, 7, 8, 9 - Boston
10, 11, 12, 13 - Washington
14, 15, 16, 17 - Philadelphia
18, 19, 20, 21 - New York
August
6, 7, 8 - Detroit
10, 11, 12, 13 - New York
14, 15, 17 - Philadelphia
18, 19, 20, 21 - Washington
22, 23, 24, 25 - Boston
September
2 - St Louis
24, 25, 26 - Chicago
28, 29 - St Louis
You'll note that there are 75 dates listed. Since teams played 154 games in a season, there were 77 home games; meaning there would seem to have been two scheduled doubleheaders for the Indians in 1929.
Based on this schedule, the Indians' 49th home date was July 19th against the Yankees.
