This day in baseball: The Bambino dominates

The Yankees won 11-8 over the Tigers on June 13, 1921 as Babe Ruth pitched the first five innings and hit two home runs at the Polo Grounds.  Ruth would not appear again as a starting pitcher for the Yankees during the 1921 season.  However, he did break his own record by hitting 59 homers for the season.
