Box Score of the Week

Milwaukee Braves at New York Giants - August 27, 1957.

---------------------------------

Braves' slugger Eddie Matthews hits his 25th home run of the 1957 campaign. In doing so, Matthews became the first player in MLB history to have six seasons of 25 or more homers before his age 26-season.

That record has since been equaled by Frank Robinson and Mike Trout.
