Summary
| Description |
English: On May 8, 1878, Paul Hines of the Providence Grays executed a triple play in a baseball game against the Boston Red Caps (both teams played in the National League). This account, from The Boston Globe on May 9, indicates that Hines made all three outs unassisted. If accurate, it would be the first unassisted triple play in major league history. However, it is still debated whether this was truly an unassisted triple play. The first accepted unassisted triple play in major league history is attributed to Neal Ball of the Cleveland Naps in 1909. |
