Joe DiMaggio

Joe DiMaggio grins in the New York Yankees’ dressing room as he holds up three fingers to denote the three home runs he hit as the Yanks defeated the Washington Senators 8 to 1 in the first game of a doubleheader at Washington, September 10, 1950. Joe is the first player ever to belt three homers in one game into Griffith Stadium’s left field bleachers, 405 feet from home plate. He also got a double.
