1908: At New York's Hilltop Park, Red Sox legend Cy Young no-hits the Highlanders (Yankees), 8-0. It the third time the 41-year old has accomplished the feat.
1948: At Briggs Stadium, Indians right-hander Bob Lemon throws the first American League night time no-hitter blanking the Tigers, 2-0. The Tigers' home was the last park in the Junior Circuit to use lights, installing illumination only two weeks ago.
1962: Due to an unusually thick fog at Colt Stadium, the game against the Reds is called after seven innings giving the Colt .45’s a 7-3 victory over Cincinnati. The shortened game allows Houston’s skipper Harry Craft to get to the hospital in time for the birth of his first daughter.
1995: At the Metrodome, Indians' designated hitter Eddie Murray collects his 3000th career hit off Twins' right-hander Mike Trombley to become the 20th player to accomplish the feat. 'Steady Eddie' joins Pete Rose as only the second switch-hitter to reach the milestone.
