This Day in #mickeymantle History: Sept. 30, 1962: Mickey, fighting to get enough plate appearances to qualify for the batting title, homers on the last day of the season to get the 502 appearances he needs. But batting leader Pete Runnels of Boston wont risk of losing his lead on the final day of the season, so he sits on it and doesnt play, thereby giving The Mick no chance to overcome him. Runnels wins the batting title, batting .326 to Mickey’s .321.
