Thanks, I didn't know that. I knew that
in 1960, the Indians & Tigers traded managers.
in 1971, SABR was founded in Cooperstown, NY.
in 1981, Pete Rose broke the NL record for hits.
in 1995, Dodgers forfeited as fans threw giveaway balls onto the field.
in 1998, Albert Belle had his seventh straight 30 HR 100 RBI year.
in 1999, Tim Wakefield fanned four in the ninth inning.
in 2002, Barry Bonds broke the season intentional walk record.
in 2003, Rafael Furcal had an unassisted triple play.

They didn't have lights in their stadium until 1988.
