[edit] Events

1890 - Giants' pitcher Mickey Welch beats the Pirates, 4-2, to become baseball's third 300-game winner. The 31-year old Brooklyn native will win only seven more games before ending his 13-year career next season.
1903 - Boston's Vic Willis outpitches Christy Mathewson to beat the Giants, 5-3. Third baseman Ed Gremminger solves Matty, banging out a single, double, home run and sacrifice to lead Boston.
1907 - The Reds take their 3rd game in a row from the Giants, and winning pitcher Jake Weimer adds insult to injury with a swipe of home. An incensed John McGraw gets into a fight with a park security man and belts him. Police break it up and no arrests are made.
1908 - Walter Johnson's (1-5) recuperation from his operation seems complete as he pitches 15 innings against the Browns with neither team scoring. Washington pulls out a 2 - 1 victory in the 16th as Johnson K's 15, the Big Train's highest strikeout total for his career. He will win 11 of his next 13 decisions.
1908 - Hooks Wiltse and Vic Willis lock horns and the Giants and Pirates duel for 16 innings before the game is called, 2-2, because of darkness. Honus Wagner is 0-for-6 but drives home a run with a sacrifice fly.
1909 - Brooklyn's Jim Pastorius no-hits the Phillies until pinch-hitter Doc Martel laces a one-out triple in the 9th inning. Pastorius wins 4-0.
1911 - Charles "Victory" Faust shows up at the Giants' hotel in St. Louis asking for a tryout. Manager John McGraw observes the "pitcher," who obviously is no player, and carries him on the team as an unofficial "mascot," and good luck charm. But the Giants lose to the Cards today, 5-2, with the help of five errors.
1914 - The Red Sox acquire lefty Vean Gregg (9-3), a 20-game winner the past three years, from Cleveland for Adam Johnson, Fritz Coumbe, and catcher Ben Egan.
1917 - In a doubleheader at St. Louis, the Red Sox sweep, winning both games by 3-2 scores, the 2nd in 11 innings. In the 20 innings, not one Red Sox batter strikes out. Another oddity is in game 2, as Ernie Shore is called out twice when hit with a batted ball.
1922 - The American League announces plans to erect a $100,000 monument to baseball in East Potomac Park, Washington. It never gets built.
1922 - The Yanks move back into first when Sad Sam Jones beats Ray Kolp, 7-3. Kolp lasts just two innings before Bill Bayne takes over for the final seven and allows two runs. Ken Williams hits his 23rd homer but Whitey Witt counters with a 3-run home run.
1931 - The White Sox record an AL-record 12 hits in the 8th inning against the Yankees. They score 11 runs as Bob Fothergill homers and triples to win 14-12.
1934 - The veteran Waite Hoyt stops Dizzy Dean's win streak at 10 with a 5-4 win in Pittsburgh.
1934 - Pittsburgh's Red Lucas, whose hitting keeps him in the lineup in close games, is relieved after 250 consecutive innings as a starting pitcher.

1935 - Ted Lyons ties a major-league record with two doubles in the same inning while beating the Browns 14-6.
1936 - In the 6th inning of a 16-6 Yankee win in Detroit, the Tigers' Goose Goslin drives a ball in the gap in right center. Right fielder Joe DiMaggio and CF Myril Hoag, in for a slumping Powell, sprint for the ball and collide, the ball bounding by for an inside the park home run. Both players are knocked unconscious but appear unhurt: Dimag stays in though Hoag is replaced. Hoag will play tomorrow and collect a single, then collapse in his hotel room on the 30th with a brain clot. Hoag will be operated on successfully at Harper Hospital and will be out the rest of the season, but he'll return to play six more years. New York wins the game on 20 hits, scoring four runs in each of the first two innings, and three apiece in the 4th and 5th. Lou Gehrig's two doubles, single and number 31 with two aboard pace the visitors. Tommy Bridges is the loser while Johnny Murphy, who relieves Monte Pearson in the 4th, is credited with the win. George Selkirk adds a homer for the Yankees, who have now hit 122.
1936 - Dolph Camilli's 9th inning homer, his second of the game, caps a 4-run rally as the Phillies top the visiting Cubs, 5-3.

1940 - King Kong Keller clouts three HRs for the New York Yankees in a 10-9 Yanks win over Chicago in the first game of a doubleheader split.
1948 - Detroit's Dizzy Trout shuts out the Red Sox, 13-0, to stop Boston's win streak at 13 games. Hoot Evers paces the 18-hit attack with four hits.
1949 - Detroit pitcher Dizzy Trout hits a ninth-inning grand slam against the Senators to help the Tigers to a victory.

1951 - Clyde Vollmer, who started the month on the bench, continues his explosive fireworks against the Indians. He singles in the tying run in the 15th and then in the 16th hits a grand slam off reliever Bob Feller for an 8-4 Red Sox win. The grand slam is the latest hit in a game in major-league history. Mickey McDermott pitches all 16 innings for the Sox, striking out 15 and walking one.
1952 - Rogers Hornsby, after being fired by the St. Louis Browns, replaces another former Brownie manager, Luke Sewell, as manager of the Cincinnati Reds.
1954 - Giants outfielder Dusty Rhodes hits three consecutive HRs at the Polo Grounds to back Johnny Antonelli's 10-0 whipping of St. Louis. It is Antonelli's 10th consecutive win. Willie Mays smacks his 36th HR, a 447 foot clout to LF.
1958 - For the sixth time in his career, Mickey Mantle hits HRs from both sides of the plate. New York beats the Athletics 14-7.
1959 - The White Sox take over first place for good by toppling the Yankees 4 3 behind pitcher Billy Pierce. Al Smith, with a 2-run home run in the 8th, provides the winning margin. The Sox will go 13-9 against the Yankees this year, the first time since 1925 that Chicago is over .500 for the season against the Bombers.
1960 - With relief help from Bobby Shantz, Whitey Ford, who leaves with an upset stomach, picks up a 4-0 win over the Indians. Tony Kubek, Mickey Mantle and Clete Boyer homer for the pinstripers. The Yanks sweep, winning the nitecap, 9-2, and take over 1st place by three percentage points.

1961 - The Yanks buy first baseman Bob Hale from Cleveland. This will make vet Earl Torgeson, signed on June 17, expendable. They'll release Torgy as a player in early September and sign him as a coach.

1968 - At Shea Stadium, Reds pitchers Jim Maloney and Clay Carroll combine on a one-hit, 5-3, victory. Maloney gives up a run-scoring double to Cleon Jones in the first inning and then is lifted in the 6th after walking three batters. Carroll gives up two run-scoring grounders, but pitches four hitless frames.

The Cubs come back four times to win 16-15 in 13 innings in a contest that goes four hours and 50 minutes. The Reds lead 6 - 0 to start, beginning with Pete Rose Sr.'s leadoff home run, and lead 15 - 14 near the finish, but Dave Rosello's RBI single off Jack Billingham wins the game. Rick Reuschel wins his 15th game, and 2nd in two days, pitching just 2/3 of an inning.

1998 - I like, it so much, I'll do it again. After setting the record yesterday for hitting the most home runs before getting a grand slam, Sammy Sosa hits his 2nd in four at bats in the Cubs 7 - 5 loss to the Diamondbacks. Sosa is the first Cub to hit grand slams in consecutive games, and just the 18th player in history.
1998 - Twins 2B Todd Walker ties a club record with his 9th consecutive hit, in a 3 - 0 victory over KC. He also matches a club record by reaching base safely 11 straight times. Walker's batting average is now up to .352.

2001 - In a day-night DH, Vinny Castilla of the Houston Astros became the 13th player this season to hit three home runs in a game when he does it against Pittsburgh, but the Pirates still edge the Astros, 9 - 8, with an amazing comeback. Pittsburgh becomes only the 2nd team in NL history to win a game by scoring seven runs with two outs and nobody on base in the 9th inning.

Citing the recipe for his success during his 19-year career with Cardinals and Padres, the 47-year-old tells the crowd he had the mind to dream, which the Scarecrow cherished, a heart to believe, which the Tin Man wanted, and courage, which the Lion lacked, in order to persevere.

2007 - One home run away from tying Hank Aaron's all-time MLB record, Barry Bonds goes 0 for 3 with a walk against Dontrelle Willis in a 4-3 win by the Giants.
