Original clipping from "The State" newspaper of Columbia SC, June 9, 1925.
This is a "Ripley's Believe It Or Not" piece depicting the great feat of March 28, 1893 when Clarence Bayne of the Univ of Penn
went 9-9 with 3 homeruns in a 59-1 win over Swarthmore. Sadly, Bayne died just 3 months later (read obit below).
I had never heard of Bayne so I did want to research this before I listed. So, yes, this did happen. Apparently he was a great pitcher
and there was talk of turning pro soon. The name of Clarence Bayne is still talked about on campus today. Please review some research below.
The clipping is 8 x 6-1/2 - VG condition - the date of the newspaper was attached on the right border.
Please note: Buyer receives the clipping ONLY, no research is included.
