 | Sunday, June 23rd, 1872: Barthold Socks it to Red Stockings, Cracks 5 Hits "Believe it or not," said New York second baseman Ed Barthold, "they threw me some good pitches today." That would be hard to believe for anyone who saw him dispose of the Red Stockings with a great 5-hit performance. "He made it look easy," said the Philadelphia manager, who saw his team fall to the New York Blue Stockings, 12-4. "Hats off to him!" E. Barthold singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a two-run single in the 6th, grounded out in the 8th and hit a three-run home run off B. Mull in the 9th. On the season, Barthold is batting .318 with 3 home runs and 53 RBIs. He has played in 71 games. |
