title: Convert string column to DateTime format
body: <p>I have a DataFrame column where value is of string type 'June 6, 2016, 6' and I want to convert it into DataTime as 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM' format.</p>
  
  <p>When tried convert by just taking value , I could able to convert it into right format.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import datetime
  stringDate = "June 6, 2016, 11"
  dateObject = datetime.datetime.strptime(stringDate, "%B %d, %Y, %H")
  print dateObject
  
  **Output : 2016-06-06 11:00:00**
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when I tried different options to apply the same conversion on python dataframe columns I'm not getting time part in the conversion.</p>
  
  <pre><code>**Option1**
  df['Date'] = df.Date.apply(lambda x: dt.datetime.strptime(x, "%B %d, %Y, %H").date())
  
  **Option2**
  df['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Date'] = df.Date.apply(lambda x: dt.datetime.strptime(x, "%B %d, %Y, %H"))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>Output: both cases got 2016-06-06</strong> </p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions will be appreciated.</p>
