A neat story!

PITTSBURG LEGEND MAKES MLB HISTORY! ⚾️🔥

Date: September 11, 1936

Just four days after his MLB debut, Pittsburg High graduate Don Gutteridge put on an unforgettable show for the St. Louis Cardinals in a 12-8 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers! The SEK native went 3-for-5 with two inside-the-park home runs, a triple, four runs scored, five RBIs, and even stole home in a historic performance. 💨🏆
