1934
- October 9 - In the 6th inning of Game 7 of the 1934 World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Detroit Tigers, the Cardinals were leading 9-0, with the game and series all but won, when Cardinal outfielder Joe Medwick got into a heated altercation with Tigers third baseman Marv Owen. In the 7th inning, Medwick was booed and pelted with bottles, fruit, vegetables, and garbage by angry Detroit fans when he went to his position in left field; after a long delay, Medwick was ejected and escorted from the stadium by police. The game was resumed with the Cardinals winning the game (and the World Series) 11-0.
