Today in Baseball History
July 19th
1902 In his New York Giants' debut as manager, John McGraw loses to the Phillies, 5-3. The fiery skipper's team will finish in last place with a record of 48-88 and 53.5 games behind the pennant winning Pirates.
1909 During the top of the second inning inning of a 6-1 win over the Red Sox at Cleveland’s League Park, Neal Ball executes the first unassisted triple
play in the post-1900 era of baseball. The Naps (Indians) shortstop catches an Ambrose McConnell line drive, steps on second to force out Heinie Wagner and then tags Jake Stahl for the third out as he comes from first base.
1909 In the same game he pulls off the first unassisted triple killing in major league history, Neal Ball records nine putouts at shortstop, another big league first, in the Naps' (Indians) 6-1 win over Boston at Cleveland’s League Park. The diminutive infielder's glove from that game will be enshrined at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.
1910 Cy Young wins his 500th game when the Naps (Indians) beat the Senators in 11 innings at American League Park, 5-4. During his 22-year major league career, from 1890-1911 pitching for five different teams, the 43 year-old right-hander will compile 511 victories, 94 more than Walter Johnson, who is second on the all-time list.
1911 Former circus acrobat Walter Carlisle completes an unassisted triple-play for Vernon (LA) of the Pacific Coast League when he catches a ball in shallow center field, flips and touches second base and beats the runner back to first base.
1912 Future Hall of Famer Rube Marquard wins his 20th game when the Giants beat St. Louis at Polo Grounds, 6-3. The 25 year-old right-hander, who will finish the season with a 26-11 record, reaches the coveted milestone quicker than any other hurler in history.
1915 The Washington Senators steal eight bases in one inning off of Indians' catcher Steve O'Neil. The first inning thievery establishes a major league record for stolen bases in one frame.
1920 With the first of his two homers in the nightcap of a twin bill against Chicago at the Polo Grounds, Babe Ruth becomes the first player to hit 30 home runs in a season. The historic home run breaks his own season mark of 29 and the ‘Rajah of Rap’ will finish the season with a resounding 54 round-trippers.
1924 Cardinals hurler Hi Bell goes the distance in both games of a Sportsman's Park doubleheader, beating the Braves, 6-1 and 2-1. The 27 year-old right-hander from Kentucky will be the last National League pitcher to win two complete game victories in one day.
1927 The Giants honor John McGraw, the team's manager since 1902, with a Silver Jubilee celebration, showering 'Mugsy' with gifts that include a huge silver loving cup, a silver platter, and a silver cane for his 25 years of service to the club. The rain during the pre-game ceremony at the Polo Grounds doesn't dampen the spirits of the enthusiastic crowd of 25,000 fans, which includes Mayor Jimmy Walker, many former players, Commissioner Landis, George M. Cohan, and Commander Richard E. Byrd.
1933 Red Sox catcher Rick Ferrell hits a homer off his brother, but Wes also hits a home run, marking the first time brothers on opposing teams homer in the same game.
1936 Seventeen year-old Iowa farm boy Bob Feller makes his major league debut pitching one inning of relief against the Senators in Washington, D.C. The hard throwing 'kid' allows no hits and no runs, striking out none and walks two batters. (Feller claims the box score is wrong - he claims to have struck out Buddy Lewis in his autobiography)
1946 During a contest between Chicago and the Red Sox, Red Jones ejects 14 members of the White Sox for their bench jockeying initiated when the ump warns Chisox hurler Joe Haynes after Ted Williams is knocked down with a pitch. It was reported for years the home plate arbitrator's ire may have been raised by a ventriloquist sitting behind the visitors' dugout, but during recent interviews with the participants of the game played than sixty years ago, it is revealed many of them believe the incident was precipitated by third-base coach Mule Haas, who wasn't thrown out of the game but was known to be more than capable of making rude sounds and infuriating remarks.
1956 With the Reds' 4-3 loss to the Pirates at Crosley Field, Brooks Lawrence's 13-game winning streak comes to an end. Roberto Clemente’s three-run homer in the ninth inning proves to be the decisive hit.
1960 In his major league debut, Giants' rookie righty Juan Marichal one-hits the Phillies at Candlestick Park, 2-0. Philadelphia's lone hit is a two out eighth-inning single by pinch hitter Clay Dalrymple.
1960 Pedro Ramos one-hits Detroit in the Senators' 5-0 victory at Briggs Stadium. The Washington right-hander's bid for a no-hitter is spoiled by Rocky Colavito's lead-off single to centerfield in the eighth inning.
1964 In his major league debut, 23 year-old Indian rookie Luis Tiant throws a complete-game, a four-hit shutout, to beat ****** Ford and the Yankees in New York, 3-0. The popular Cuban right-hander will compile a 229-172 record (.571) pitching for six teams during his 19 years in the big leagues.
1966 In the first major league game to be played totally on artificial turf, Houston beats Philadelphia at the Astrodome, 8-2. Prior to this contest, the outfield consisted of painted dirt with only the infield covered with the new material created by Monsanto Company dubbed Astroturf.
1966 In his final at-bat in the major leagues, Cardinals starter Tracy Stallard grounds out to short in the Redbirds' 10-9 victory over Atlanta. During his seven-year tenure, the right-hander, best known for giving up Roger Maris's 61st home run, sets a major league record by failing to get a base-on-balls in his 247 appearances at the plate.
1967 Tom Matchick's two-run home run gives Detroit a dramatic 5-4 walk-off victory over Baltimore at Tiger Stadium. The rookie shortstop's round-tripper, the first of only four he will hit in his six-year major league career, comes with two outs off Moe Drabowsky.
1969 Washington starter Joe Coleman throws his third consecutive shutout when he blanks the Bronx Bombers, 4-0. The 22 year-old right-hander, the Senators' first round pick (third overall) of the amateur draft in 1965, faces only 29 batters in his two-hit masterpiece in New York.
1972 At Three Rivers Stadium, Luke Walker singles off Cecil Upshaw to break an 0-for-39 drought at the plate. The Pirates' southpaw pitches three innings of one-hit shutout baseball to pick up a save in the 8-3 victory over the Braves.
1973 In an effort to quell a controversy over deserving players not being selected for the All-Star Game, Commissioner Bowie Kuhn grants permission to both leagues to increase their roster size to 29 players for next week's contest in Kansas City's Kauffman Stadium. The National League selects fading superstar Willie Mays with the Junior Circuit adding Nolan Ryan, who was not originally picked by American League manager **** Williams although the Angel right-hander was the first pitcher since Johnny Vander Meer, the starter in the 1938 Mid-Summer Classic, to have two no-hitters before the break.
1974 **** Bosman no-hits the A’s at Cleveland Stadium. The 30 year-old right-hander misses a perfect game because of his own fourth inning throwing error, which gives Oakland their lone baserunner in the Indians' 4-0 victory.
1975 At Candlestick Park, Doug Rader, batting eighth, plays the entire game without getting an official at bat. The Cardinals walk the Giants catcher four times, three intentionally, to get to John Montefusco, the Giants starter who goes 0-for-4 at the plate, but tosses a complete game to get the win in San Francisco's 5-2 victory.
1976 After winning the American League pennant last season, Darrell Johnson is fired by the Red Sox and is replaced by third base coach Don Zimmer. The move is made after the fifth-place club gets off to a slow start, compiling a 41-45 record, 13 games behind the division leading Yankees.
1977 With a four-run first inning, the National League coasts to a 7-5 win over the AL at the newly renovated Yankee Stadium. It's the Senior Circuit's sixth straight victory, and their 14th in the last 15 games.
1980 Roy Lee Jackson retires the last 19 batters he faces en route to a complete game victory in the Mets' 13-3 rout of the Reds at Riverfront Stadium. The 26 year-old right-hander benefits from his teammates' 20-hit barrage in the Cincinnati contest.
1982 Tony Gwynn doubles of Phillies' southpaw Sid Monge for his first major league hit. The future Hall of Famer will enjoy a 2-for-4 day with a sacrifice fly.
1982 In front of 29,000 enthusiastic fans at Washington’s RFK Stadium, the American League beats the NL in the first-ever Old-timer’s All-Star Classic, 7-2. Warren Spahn gives up a leadoff homer, over the shortened left-field fence, to 75 year-old Luke Appling, a Hall of Fame infielder who played his entire career with the White Sox.
1989 Joe Carter blasts three homers in the Indians' 10-1 rout of Minnesota. It's the second time this season and the fourth three-home run game of the Cleveland outfielder's career, tying Lou Gehrig for the American League record.
1993 The game against the Cardinals is delayed for an hour after a fire breaks out in the skybox/press box area of Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. Recently acquired Fred McGriff pinch-hits a homer, enabling the Braves to rally from a 5-0 deficit to win 7-5 and appears to ignite the beginning of the team's historic comeback from a 9 1/2 games deficit to win the National League West Division.
1995 The Devil Rays name Chuck LaMar as the franchise's first general manager. Under leadership of the former Braves assistant GM, the expansion team will compile a 518–777 (.400) record during the first eight years of its existence.
1998 Carlos Delgado becomes the first player to reach the SkyDome's fifth deck with his Ruthian home run to right field. The massive blast snaps the Blue Jays first baseman's 0-for-29 slump.
1999 In a 7-6 inter-league victory over Cincinnati, Jeff Weaver becomes the first Tigers pitcher to hit a double in 27 years. The last Detroit hurler to accomplish the feat was Chuck Seelbach. who banged a two-bagger off Lloyd Allen of the Angels on August 20, 1972.
2000 The Blue Jays, hoping to strengthen their rotation in the midst of a pennant race with the first-place Yankees, trade minor league infielder Michael Young to Texas for Esteban Loaiza, who will post a disappointing 5-7 record down the stretch for the short-term contenders. The Rangers' newest prospect will develop into a perennial All-star shortstop, batting .301 during his 13 seasons with the Texan team.
2001 Fanning 16 batters, Randy Johnson sets a major league record for strikeouts by a reliever. The 'Big Unit' completes a suspended game with San Diego, which the Diamondbacks win, 3-0.
2004 In Pacific Coast League action at Portland's PGE Park, minor leaguer Tagg Bozied hits a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to beat the Tacoma Rainiers, 8-5. Upon his arrival at home plate, the Beavers' first baseman, jumping for joy, ruptures the patella tendon to his left knee and needs taken to Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital by ambulance.
2005 Winning its second consecutive 1-0 contest, the Red Sox limit the Kansas City offense to four hits. The last time two straight 1-0 games occurred in Fenway Park was in 1916.
2009 Ian Kinsler becomes the fifth major leaguer in baseball history to hit both a leadoff and walkoff home run for his team in the same game. The Rangers' second baseman led off the bottom of the first inning with a round-tripper off Francisco Liriano, and then ended the contest in the bottom of the 12th with a game-ending two-run blast off R.A. Dickey to give Texas a 6-4 victory over Minnesota.
2013 Houston’s Brandon Barnes, who goes 5-for-5, scores three times,and drives in two runs in the Astros’ 10-7 loss to Seattle at Minute Maid Park, collects the eighth cycle in franchise history. The Astros center fielder joins Cesar Cedeno (1972, 1976), Bob Watson (1977), Andujar Cedeno (1992), Jeff Bagwell (2001), Craig Biggio (2002), and Luke Scott (2006) when his eighth-inning double completes the historic accomplishment.

I remember that blast. Delgado was always one of my favorites.
There's a good name. I love hearing names of guys like Loaiza who you almost forget about. He pitched for a long-time. Had some real good years in there.
Thanks for posting these

Corking a bat doesn't give you any advantage.
It just makes the bat lighter so you can swing it faster.
These guys have access to get any length bat at any weight they want.
So if you use a corked bat, you're just an idiot.

Sosa had to use a corked bat for years before he got busted.
Julio Franco I wrote my SAT essay on him one of the times I took it.
