5/15/26: I got us going w/an RBI-3B in the 1st & then Meusel 1Bed me in. That was all we needed but in the 3rd Koenig, Combs, me, Ruth & Meusel hit consec. 1Bs to bring in 5 more. Ruth’s HR in the 8th was strictly gravy. Pennock was magnificent, held the #WhiteSox to 3 hits. Won it 10-1. #Yankees

5/14/1926: The Babe hit his 320th career HR today, his 11th of the season. On this exact date in '21 he also had 11, but that club had played 5 fewer games. Knowing the Bambino, that probably just makes him ornery. Far behind Ruth on the all-time list are Cy Williams (190) & Hornsby (181). #Yankees

5/14/26: It was Shawkey's turn at the mound today, but turns out he's got a fractured toe. So w/o much notice, Myles Thomas did what he did all last year in #Toronto: turned hitters into suckers. Held #Cleveland to 6 hits & a run. We only had 2 hits, but needed just 1, Ruth's HR aft I BBed. #Yankees

5/13/1926: Babe Ruth's 2 HRs today puts him exactly even w/his '21 pace, the year he finished w/59. Needs his 11th tomorrow to stay on track. The man's chasing his own ghost & gaining on it. Also! The '21 #Yankees, who set the club record w/134, had 18 at this point (26 games). We've hit 27.

5/13/1926: #Badnews today. Dugan split a finger on his throwing hand in the 4th. Had to leave the game. Gazella will take over at 3B til he's back. Maybe a week, maybe a month, depending on who you ask. Poor guy's leading the AL in hitting (.423
), well ahead of the next guy, Goslin (.400). #Yankees

5/13/26: There’s nothing like #BabeRuth. He smacked 2 HRs (nos. 9 & 10!) & a 2B today, knocking in 6 & also made 2 great running catches. Hoyt lasted only to the 6th, when Jamieson’s insider-the grounds HR tied the score. But big hits from Lazzeri & Combs gave Karr the L. #Yankees 13, #Cleveland 9.

5/12/26: Speaker 2Bed in the tying run in the 9th & it looked like we'd thrown one away. But we bungled a win somehow. Dugan’s 3B & 2 IBBs loaded the bases w/none out in the 10th. Koenig GIDPed 6-2-3 & it looked bleak. But then Lacey fumbled Combs’ roller & Collins scored. #Yankees 6 #Cleveland 5.

5/10/1926: Ruth's 8th home run today puts him well ahead of everyone else. In 1921, the year he hit 59, he had 9 by this date. I'm not sure what to make of that except that the rest of the league ought to be worried. He's definitely back to being the Babe. Stop your belly-aching. #Yankees

5/10/26: My 1B in the 1st scored 2, but the #Tigers were all over Pennock so by the 5th we were down 4. Back-to-back HRs by me & Ruth (his 8th!) caught us up, but it was Comb’s 3-run smash in the 6th that opened the floodgates. Won it 13-9. I had 4 RBIs; that's 19 for the year. Ruth has 33. #Yankees

5/9/26: 55k at #YankeeStadium saw Cobb go 4-4 w/2 HRs as the #Tigers beat us 14-10. What a dizzying afternoon. Down 7-1 in the 2nd, we got 7; down 9-8 in the 5th, we tied it. Down 10-9 in the 9th, tho, #Detroit scored 4 (2-RBI 1Bs by Dauss & Gehringer did us in). Got my 7th 3B in the 1st. #Yankees

5/8/26: Whitehill drilled my hand in the 9th (the 3rd time he's hit me!) & had the nerve to ask to see proof! I charged the mound but the ump held me back. So after the game we got our swings in bef. the Babe yanked me away & accidentally knocked me cold. Then Merkle & Cobb got into it too! #Yankees

5/8/1926: The #Tigers were up 7-0 by the 4th, 3 of them knocked in by Cobb. Cobb also ran down a deep fly by Dugan in the 6th. The lead proved insurmountable. Ruth's 3-run HR in the 5th (his 7th!) & Dugan's 2-run HR in the 8th (his 1st) were pretty, but just not enough. #Yankees #OTD

5/7/26: Ruth’s 6th HR along w/RBIs from Hoyt & Combs helped us to an early lead. But the #Tigers batted around in the 6th, scoring 3. Later, O’Rourke 1Bed in Cobb w/2 outs in the 9th off Pennock (in relief), sending it to extras. Herb was perfect aft that. Won it in the 11th on Collins’ 1B. #Yankees

5/6/26: Down by 2, 1 out, bases full, bottom of the 9th vs. Wash., Hug sent Ward in to PH for Shawkey. Ward’s 1st AB of the year. GIDP to end it. :( Our 4th loss in a row. Ruth left the game aft colliding w/Lazzeri while tracking down a flyball, but he'll be okay. I am now 0-17 vs. Ruether. #Yankees

5/5/26: HRs by Ruth & Meusel gave us a small lead but Pennock lost his stuff late, as the #Athletics bagged four in the 7th & 8th. Lost 5-3. Koening (.111), Combs (.222), Collins (.083) & I (.133) have been slumping the last 4 games, which explains much about our sudden losing streak of 3. #Yankees

5/5/26: Scary moment at practice today. Bill Wambsganss stepped right into a liner off Kid Gleason’s bat, caught him flush near the temple. Sound turned a few heads. Went down dazed but after a spell & some first aid, he got up & walked off on his own. Game can turn on you quick. #Athletics #Yankees

5/4/26: Today we battered Quinn w/13 hits but finished on the short end, 10-5 vs. the #Athletics. Jones was done in the 2nd aft Cochrane's 3-run blast. In the 4th Thomas' E led to 3 more for #Philadelphia. 1k school boys were guests for Boys' Week & cheered mostly for Ruth (who got 3 hits). #Yankees

5/3/1926: Had our chances, up 3-1 early (RBIs by Dugan, Shawkey & Ruth), but the #Athletics got 4 off Sailor Bob in the 6th (4 hits & an E by Lazzeri) & Grove shut us down the rest of the way. He even 2Bed in 2 in the 8th (off Shocker) to finish the job, ending our 8 game winning streak. #Yankees

5/2/26: Slugged our way to a 15-3 win over the #Newark Bears today in an exhibition. 13K may be the largest crowd in #JerseyCity history. Besides our smacking 16 hits, the highlights were George Burns (of '21 WS fame) robbing Lazzeri of a HR & Babe Ruth taking the mound in the 9th. #Yankees #MLB

5/1/26: Won our 8th straight today in front of 42K; was already over in the 1st w/Meusel's 2-run 1B & Dugan's 2-run 3B. After that it was a veritable pitchers duel, w/Hoyt cruising to a 4-1 victory. It's my 5th time seeing Ruether & I still haven't cracked the code, now 0-14 against him. #Yankees

4/30/1926: Just over two weeks into the season, early returns say the home run crown will belong to Babe Ruth again. I was 5th in the American League last season, but with just one so far, I’ve got some catching up to do. Bat’s itching to break loose. #Yankees #OTD #Dodgers #Phillies

4/30/26: It was a nail-biter til the 7th, when I cracked an RBI 2B & then scored on Ruth's HR. Shocker kept his wits, just 2 slips all day (solo HRs by Judge & Rice), & coasted to a 7-2 win. Our 7th straight. It was the Babe's 4th of the year (leads #MLB) & gives us 15 in our 1st 15 games. #Yankees

4/29/26: Today was the #Yankees vs. Goslin. Aft taking an 8-0 lead thru 5 inn. w/hits by Lazzeri (HR), Koenig (3B), Combs (2B), Dugan (1B) & some ground outs, Goose hit a 2-run HR in the 6th & RBI 1Bs in the 8th & 9th. He even scored a run to account for all 5 Washington runs. Our 6th win in a row.

4/28/26: Loaded the bases vs. Groves in the 1st to no avail. Kept pressing tho & pierced his armor in the 8th w/4 straight hits: Ruth, Meusel, Lazzeri (2B) & Dugan (2B). He struck us out 11x, but Jones did better: a 3-hit ShO. Got Wambsganss to pop out w/3 on in the 9th. #Yankees 3, #Athletics 0.

4/27/1926: There's talk around the league that the ball is dead this year. Hug says it doesn't seem to travel with the same zip as before. Maybe so. But let me tell you, Ruth keeps hitting them far. Last year it seemed age (30) had caught up to him. This year (31) it seems otherwise. #Yankees

4/27/1926: Combs clouted one in the 1st, then Lazzeri got one in the 4th & then we scored 5 in the 5th, sending Rommel to the showers. Ruth's 3-run 2B was the death knell. Bob-Gob Shawkey went all the way K'ing 9 & allowing just 5 hits. We've won 9 of our last 12. #Yankees 8, #Athletics 2.

4/25/1926: It's still quite early (just 11 games in), but I'm leading the American League in hits, triples & average. More importantly, we're in 1st place! Not surprising, though, considering we've scored 85 runs (30 more than anyone else). Murderer's Row is back. #Yankees #OTD

4/25/26: 25K fans defied early hints of rain to watch us coast to a 7-2 win. Scored 4 in the 1st on 5 straight hits, including my 5th 3B of the yr. The #Athletics BBed 4x in the 2nd but managed just 1 run. Then in the 5th Ruth threw Hale out at home for an inning ending DP! Hoyt's now 3-1. #Yankees

4/24/26: Had this one locked up early. 10 hits off Wiltse & a 6-1 lead after 7. But what everyone's talking abt was Ruth's 3-run blast in the 8th that landed not 5 rows from the back of the CF/RF bleachers. Shocker held the #RedSox to just 4 hits. I'm now 13-26 in my last 7 games. #Yankees #OTD

4/23/1926: Pennock & Ruffing made a pretty game of it today. Herb was at his elegant best, stopping #RedSox threats in the 6th & 7th to keep a 2-1 lead. Later Ruth hit one deep into the RF seats just to be sure. Got my 14th hit & 12th RBI in the 3rd, in only 9 games so far this year. #Yankees #OTD

8/23/1926: Babe wrote some kind things about Earle & me in his column today. Said he'd rather have us on his club than any other young fellows in the league. That's about the finest thing a ballplayer could read over his morning coffee. Don't know that I've earned that yet, but I mean to. #Yankees

4/22/26: Up 4-1, Thomas & McQuaid coughed up 6 in the 6th. In the 9th, Ruth led off w/a 3B & then scored on a short CF fly to tie it. Flagstaff's throw was on the money, but Ruth's nosedive dislodged the ball from Gaston's grip. Todt’s 10th-inning shot (his 2nd of the day) won it. #RedSox #Yankees

4/21/1926: Jones had a rough go of it again today, but Hoyt came in & was simply splendid. Same as Saturday. We knock Ehmke out in the 4th, scoring 6 off him, topped off by Combs’ 3-run HR. Meusel helped himself to one in the eighth. #Yankees 8, #RedSox 5. Hoyt deserves a nice supper tonight. #OTD

4/21/1926: #NYC Mayor Jimmy Walker threw out the 1st ball to start the #Yankees home season today. Seen here with Harry Frazee & Jacob Ruppert. #YankeeStadium #OTD

4/20/26: Ruth went 5-6 w/a HR & 6 RBIs today. If this is how it's going to be when the Babe's healthy, it's going to be murder on the American League. Barney lasted only 3 inn. & when all was said & done we amassed 29 TBs, coasting to a 18-5 win over Wash. Team's hitting .330 for the year. #Yankees

4/18/1926: A great dual btw Shawkey & Bush today. Shawkey had a no-hitter til the 7th when a few hits & an E let in 2. Down to our last out in the 9th w/me on 1st, Meusel tied it with a HR to deep LF (on the 1st pitch!). They finally beat us in the 11th on Bluege’s RBI 1B. #Senators 3, #Yankees 2.

4/17/26: Scored 4 in the 1st (incl. my 3-run HR), but Jones gave them all back in the bottom of the frame w/o registering an out. Thankfully Hoyt limited Wash. to 3 hits the rest of the way & we won it 8-6. Ruth & I hit back-to-back 3Bs in the 7th to seal the deal. As a team we had 29 TBs! #Yankees

4/16/26: Pennock was not in specially good gear, but the #RedSox were unable to capitalize. Even in the 8th, men on 1st & 3rd, no outs, Ruth caught a sharp fly by Rosenthal, then Todt & Bratschi both grounded out to the mound. My grounder scoring Koenig in the 7th decided it. We won it 3-2. #Yankees

4/16/26: In the past 2 days #RedSox & #Yankees bats have combined for 54 hits & 38 runs off 15 different pitchers. The only ace capable of stopping these hot lineups was the weather. Today's game postponed due to the cold. Btw, Huggins told the #NYT that we're the hardest hitting club he's ever had.

4/14/26: Had a 2-run lead til the 6th when, w/2 out & 1 on, Hoyt was scorched for 5 runs. We had a last chance in the 9th: Collins hit a lead-off HR & then we got the bases loaded, but Meusel dribbled a feeble grounder to the pitcher & that was that. #RedSox 8 #Yankees 7. Got my 2nd 3B of the year.

4/13/26: #OpeningDay at last! Bitter cold at #Fenway. Jumped ahead 10 runs on #Boston by the 5th & then spent the rest of the afternoon watching that lead shrink. Ruth, Meusel, Combs & I all got the bat on the ball well enough, while Shawkey, Shocker & Jones got rocked. #Yankees 12 #RedSox 11. #MLB

10/17/1925: Goose Goslin belted three home runs in both the 1924 and 1925 #WorldSeries, giving him more Series four baggers than anyone else, including Babe Ruth. Here's a list of all players through 1925 with 2 or more WS home runs. #Yankees

10/15/1925: The #Pirates won gm 7 of the #WorldSeries in the rain yesterday, 9-7. A mud-caked mess, more a test of survival than skill. #Washington scored 4 in the 1st on BBs, 1Bs, WPs & Es, but a banged up Johnson couldn’t hold the lead. Peckinpaugh’s E in the 7th led to 2 runs. (1/3)

10/14/1925 (gm 6): Kremer gave up a HR to Goslin in the 1st & a RBI-2B to Peckinpaugh in the 2nd yesterday but then settled down to ShO #Washington the rest of the way. The #Pirates grinded out 2 runs in the 3rd on a bunch o squibs, then Moore HRed the decisive run in the 5th. #WorldSeries tied 3-3!

10/12/1925: Bluege was back in the line up today after missing 2 games. He was struck in the head by an Aldridge pitch in the 2nd game. And who did Ossie have to face? Aldridge. A tall order, for sure. He K'ed in his 1st AB against the #Hoosier Schoolmaster, but 2Bed the next time. #WorldSeries

10/12/1925 (gm 5): #Pittsburgh toppled #Washington, 6 to 3, today as Aldridge won his 2nd #WorldSeries game, scattering 8 hits. Harris’s 4th-inn HR briefly tied the score, but the #Pirates knocked Coveleskie out in the 7th w/1Bs by Carey, Cuyler & Barnhart to secure the W. Nats are up 3 games to 2.

10/11/1925 (gm4): Walter Johnson (in spite of a leg injury he suffered in the 3rd) shut out the #Pirates & Goose Goslin hit a 3-run HR to give the #Senators a 3 games to 1 lead in the #WorldSeries. Bucky Harris helped immensely w/13 chances at 2B, several being of the sensational variety. #OTD

10/11/1925 (gm 3): Cold, windy & wild day w/the Coolidges on hand yesterday. Washington beat the #Pirates 4-3 thanks to Judge's 2B, Goslin’s HR, Rice’s HR-preventing catch in the 8th (did he really catch it?) & Marberry pitching out of the bases-loaded jam he created himself in the 9th. #WorldSeries

10/8/1925 (gm w): Oscar Bluege was struck in the top of the head by one of Aldridge’s fastballs in the 6th today. Eventually, he was able to walk off the field, but he may be out of commission for a while. Ken Williams was struck on August 14 & was out the rest of the year. #WorldSeries

10/8/1925 (gm 2): A great duel btw Coveleskie & Aldridge until the 8th when (tied 1-1) Cuyler hit a 2-run HR to propel the #Pirates to victory. #Washington had their chances w/none out & the bases full in both the 5th & 9th, but only mustered a SF from Veach. Tied now 1 game a piece. #WorldSeries
