You may have noticed recently that I've been including "This Day in Dodgers History" notes in my Daily Kiosk post. For the most part I've been featuring rare feats and broken records tied to the Dodgers, but todays historical note failed to mention one incident that has had me scratching my head all morning.
Frankly, I just don't know what to make of it.
Per the Dodgers own website they noted a game played against the hated NY Giants at Ebbets Field on September 1, 1944, and an strange incident that happened between the two managers - Leo Durocher of the Dodgers and Mel Ott of the Giants.
