June 25, 1937, Augie Galan of the Chicago Cubs becomes the first player in National League history to switch-hit home runs in the same game. The switch-hitter's pair of round-trippers, a homer from the left side off Freddie Fitzsimmons in the fourth frame and from the right side in the eighth against Ralph Birkofer, helps the Cubs beat Brooklyn at Wrigley Field, 11-2. James "Tex" Carleton pitches a five-hitter for Chicago.
