BASEBALL TRIVIA

Name the player who recorded nine hits in an 18-inning game.

A. Cesar Tovar
B. Rennie Stennett
C. Johnny Burnett
D. Ty Cobb

Answer: C.

Playing shortstop for the Indians at League Park II in Cleveland on July 10, 1932, Burnett came to bat 11 times in an 18-inning game won by the Philadelphia A's.

Burnett had nine of his team's 33 hits, including seven singles and two doubles. He scored four runs and drove in two, but it wasn't enough as the A's won 18-17.
