A performance for the ages, 50 years ago tonight
No Braves player has ever had a better game than Tony Cloninger, 50 years ago today. Except maybe Tony Cloninger.
He might’ve been even better three weeks earlier, when he allowed just one run and five hits in 9 innings. The Braves scored 17 that day as well; Cloninger drove in five on three hits, two homers. He entered the game batting .121.
To sum up:
10 AB, 4 HR, 6 hits, 14 RBI
