May we be of assistance?
2008-05-10 06:00
56 years ago today, the Boston Red Sox tied a major league record for assists in one inning? It happened in the fifth inning of a game against the Yankees in New York? How many assists were there?
The answer: 10. According to the account of the inning in the May 21, 1952 Sporting News, here's how the inning played out.
The Yankees won the game 18-3. The Sporting News Complete Baseball Record Book also states that Cleveland had 10 assists in the first inning of a game against Philadelphia on August 17, 1921, however I can't find any details of that game.
