Is this one when Musial hit a liner right back at Spahn and hit him in the gut knocking him down?

Spahn got up, got the ball and threw Musial out at first.

The mention of these names brings back memories of my Mother and her love of baseball. I remember as a young kid in the late 1940s, early 1950s, laying in my bed at night, and being able to hear as my mother sat in the kitchen, which was dark with the exception of the little light on above the kitchen stove, listening to a baseball night game, while waiting for my Dad to come home from his 2nd shift job. She was a White Sox fan, went to the games with my aunt and all of us kids. I was never a real fan of baseball, but through osmosis, I learned all the names of the well known baseball players from all the teams, and never forgot them. RIP Stan Musial, and to the wonderful memories of my Mother and baseball a long time ago.
