1965: Switch-hitting Tom Tresh connects for three consecutive home runs in the Yankees' 12-0 blowout against the White Sox. Tresh hits his first homer right-handed off Juan Pizarro in the first inning, then goes to the other side of the plate and hits two against Bruce Howard in the third and fifth innings.
