Did glenn wrights unassisted triple play on May 7 1925 end the game?
No. Glenn Wright was playing for the Pittsburgh Pirates at the time, who were at home to the St Louis Cardinals. St Louis were leading 10-9 when Wright's unassisted triple play ended their inning, but because the Pirates were trailing they had to play out the bottom of the ninth. 10-9 ended up being the final score. Only two of the fifteen unassisted triple plays in the MLB have ended the game: Johnny Neun of the Detroit Tigers, who beat the Cleveland Indians 1-0 on May 31, 1927, and Eric Bruntlett of the Philadelphia Phillies, who beat the New York Mets 9-7 on August 23, 2009.
Who made an unassisted triple play in August 2003?
Rafael Furcal Here is a link to the story on ESPN's site about the unassisted triple play that Furcal made: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/story?id=1593632 To quote: With runners on first and second, Furcal made a leaping grab of pitcher Woody Williams' liner. The runners were going on a 1-1 pitch, and Furcal stepped on second base to double up Mike Matheny before tagging out Orlando Palmeiro as he made a futile attempt to scamper back to first. Just to let you know, another unassisted triple play was made in the 5th game of the 1920 World Series by Bill Wambsganss, the Cleveland Indians' second baseman. There were runners on first and second with nobody out. Wambsganss grabbed a screaming line drive, stepped on 2nd base, and tagged the runner who was on first base, now only a few feet away from Wambsganss (both runners were running because they both thought it was a sure hit). Some useless trivia here: As of July 31, 2007: There have been 13 recorded unassisted triple plays in MLB history. There have been 15 players to hit four home runs in one game in MLB history. There have been 17 pitchers to pitch perfect games in MLB history. This might suggest, to the suggestable reader, that the unassisted triple play is the most unusual feat in MLB.
Has any one player made a triple play?
Yes, there have been 15 players in Major League Baseball history that have accomplished the feat of turning an unassisted Triple Play. The Cleveland Indians' Asdrubal Cabrera, Oakland Athletics' Randy Velarde, Boston's John Valentin, Washington's Ron Hansen in 1968, Detroit's Johnny Neun from 1927, Boston's George Burns from 1923, Cleveland's Bill Wamsganss from 1920 and Cleveland's Neal Ball from 1909 are the American League players that accomplished the feat. The Philadelphia Phillies' Eric Bruntlett, Colorado Rockies' Troy Tulowitzki, Atlanta Braves' Rafael Furcal, Philadelphia's Mickey Morandini, Chicago's Jimmy Cooney, Pittsburgh's Glenn Wright and Boston's Ernie Padgett are the National League players that accomplished the feat. The earliest unassisted Triple Play to date that's currently on record would be the one that happened on July 19, 1909 which was the one that Cleveland's Neal Ball turned. The unassisted Triple Play that Bill Wamsganns performed is the only unassisted Triple Play to date that has been turned during a World Series game.

What is more exciting. a triple play a no-hitter or a walk-off home run?
Excitement is a personal thing, so there is no correct answer. For me, it's a triple play. A walk off homer may be exciting for the home team as it ends the game, but a homer is a homer, and we see them all the time. The excitement is in the winning, not the homer. Again, though, it's a matter of personal preference.
