Reggie Jackson and Billy Martin was the epitome of the Bronx
is Burning era and on this day in 1978 the feud only got worse as Jackson was
suspended for five games by the New York Yankees. In a Yankees loss the future
Hall of Fame outfielder was told to swing away by Martin and instead struck out
while attempting to bunt.
And finally on this day in 1941 Joe DiMaggios' record streak of hitting in 56 straight games ended as the Indians third baseman Ken Keltner robbed DiMaggio more than once. DiMaggio batted .408 during the streak and would start another 17 game streak after this game hitting in 73 of his last 74 games.
