  • 1904 - At Cincinnati’s Palace of the Fans, 32-year-old Cubs first baseman Frank Chance is plunked by a pitch five times during a doubleheader. In the first game of the twin bill, the future Hall-of-Famer loses consciousness briefly when one of the misguided pitches hits the ‘the Peerless Leader’s’ head. (1)

I think this can go well under crazystengel's "Believe it or don't" thread.

very cool and bizarre. Unless you were Frank Chance, in which case scary and bizarre.

Old timey baseball! I like how they kept plunking him even after he'd been knocked unconscious. Were the Reds mad at him about something in particular, or was it just a day ending in a Y? Did the Cubs respond by sending out the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons?
