14 july 1948 satchel paige vs jackie robinson
Requesting an assist in finding an official box score, if one exists, for an exhibition game that was played the day after the All Star game on July 14, 1948. The game was between the Cleveland Indians and Brooklyn Dodgers and was played In Municipal Stadium. What is unique about this game, it featured not only Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella, Larry Doby but also the newly signed Satchel Paige.
Satchel signed with Indians on July 7, 1948, appeared in his first game on July 9, 1948 against the St. Louis Browns, and now was going to make an appearance against the Brooklyn Dodgers on July 14, 1948. From the information I can find so far, Satchel appeared in relief in the 7th and 8th innings of that game. I own an official program and scorecard from the game. The scorecard has been filled out, and I'm trying to find additional information on who Satchel pitched to. If in fact he pitched in the 7th and 8th inning, he may have pitched to both Jackie Robinson and Roy Campanella. I'm just trying to verify from a reliable source. As pictured in the attached, the scorecard has been filled out - but I don't know if that's really happened. Also, does anyone out there have any information where Satchel Paige may have pitched to Jackie Robinson in addition to this game (other than the Negro Leagues). Also, take a moment and read the article regarding the exhibition game. It states there was a foot race between Jackie Robinson and Larry Doby as a side attraction! Could you imagine watching that! |
