Baseball’s strangest moments: From Frank Isbell leaving 11 runners stranded in 1901 to Red Barrett’s 58-pitch shutout in 1944, the game’s history is full of jaw-dropping oddities. Mickey Mantle’s 460-foot homer in 1957, Cesar Tovar’s no-hit-breaking magic in 1969, and Harmon Killebrew’s 500th homer off Mike Cuellar in 1971 all stand out. Pete Rose shattered Stan Musial’s hit record in 1981 after a strike-shortened season. Then came Kevin Gross’s sandpaper glove scandal in 1987 and fans throwing souvenirs onto the field in 1995. Rafael Furcal’s unassisted triple play in 2003, Barry Bonds’ 13-year 30-homer streak in 2004, and the Orioles’ shocking playoff elimination in 2018 round out a wild ride through baseball’s most bizarre and unforgettable plays.
