1940s[]

  • 1942 - Jim Tobin of the Boston Braves almost single-handedly beat the Chicago Cubs at Braves Field, 6–5, by pitching a five-hitter and hitting three consecutive home runs. Tobin, who hit a pinch-homer the day before, became the only pitcher in modern history to collect three home runs in a game. His fourth at-bat was a fly ball caught against the fence in left field.

1950s[]

  • 1952 - In an Appalachian League game, Ron Necciai of the Bristol Twins struck out 27 batters while pitching a 7–0 no-hitter against the Welch Miners. Four of the Welch hitters did reach base on a walk, an error, a hit by pitch and a passed ball charged to Twins' catcher Harry Dunlop on a swinging third strike. But 27 outs were recorded that night via strikeout. Actually, there were four in the ninth inning, by Dunlop's miscue, and one batter was retired on a grounder in the second inning.

1960s[]

  • 1965 - California Angels pitcher Dick Wantz died following surgery for brain cancer. The 25-year-old Wantz had made his debut only one month earlier, pitching one inning in relief in his only major league appearance.

  • 2000 - Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Todd Stottlemyre earned his seventh victory of the season as the Diamondbacks beat the San Diego Padres 6–2. It was also Stottlemyre's 136th career win. He and father Mel Stottlemyre became the first father-son combination to record 300 wins.
