False Babe Ruth 500th Home Run Ticket - How can PSA date this ticket??????

[Steve D]

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.

Steve GREAT detective work!

Just can't be believe PSA ignored rainouts, or more likely were paid to ignore them.

What a clown organization!
