Eddie Rommel allowed 29 hits, nine walks and 14 runs—and somehow earned the win.
On July 10, 1932, the Philadelphia Athletics knuckleballer entered in the second inning and remained on the mound for the next 17 innings. Philadelphia ultimately defeated Cleveland 18–17, giving Rommel the 171st and final victory of his major-league career.
In this episode of High Heat with Cheddar, Braeden Chadwick reconstructs Rommel’s unbelievable survival act before examining four more pitching performances that look impossible:
- Allan Travers allowing 24 runs in his only MLB appearance
- Leon Cadore and Joe Oeschger both pitching 26 complete innings
- Harvey Haddix throwing 12 perfect innings—and losing
- Tom Cheney recording 21 strikeouts across 16 innings
Some of these pitchers dominated. Some were completely overwhelmed. Others simply refused to leave. Together, their box scores show why a pitching line never tells the entire story.
