This Day in #mickeymantle History: Sept. 19, 1968: Mickey is in Detroit for his final series there. Denny McLain, who wins 31 games in 1968, has a 6-1 lead. His Tigers have already clinched the AL Championship. Denny tells catcher Jim Price that he’s going to let Mick hit one. Mickey obliges with career homer #535 into the upper deck in right. McLain winks at The Mick as he rounds the bases. Joe Pepitone, the Bombers next batter, puts his hand out to show McLain where he wants him to put his pitch. Denny knocks him down!
