For the record, Willie Stargell holds the dubious distinction of being the only major league baseball player to ever hit an "inside-the-tuba" homerun. It happened duing the 1965 All-Star game when Stargell blasted one off of Mudcat Grant, sending it over the right-center field bullpen of Metropolitan Stadium and into the tuba of a band that was playing.
