🧵 on #SatchelPaigeTwo plausible inferences:
* Paige is likely enough to have announced his pitch to Gibson. He was a trash talker; O'Neil was likely relating SOME memorable event.
* If he did, he did it with the bags full and just a 2-0 lead!
7/7

SO. Here are the facts:
* This was the only time in the Series he struck out Gibson with the bases loaded.
* He didn't walk the bases loaded, intentionally or otherwise, on this occasion.
* The K didn't end the game.

#Retrosheet has ALSO created play-by-play descriptions of each of these games -- again, working from contemporary news reports.
Take a look at the bottom of the seventh inning:

Fortunately, the good folks at #Retrosheet have RECONSTRUCTED, from news reports, expanded box scores of that #WorldSeries between the #Monarchs and the #Grays. Take a look at Game 2.

Key phrase there = "according to legend." What we need to bear in mind is that both Satch and Buck O'Neil were gifted storytellers, and that storytelling was marketing during their playing days.
