On June 22 in Baseball History...
1926 - The Cardinals pick up 39-year-old Grover Cleveland
Alexander on waivers from the Cubs to help in the pennant chase.
He'll go 9-7 down the stretch.
1932 - The N.L., at a meeting of club presidents, finally
approves players wearing numbers. The A.L. had started in 1929.
1946 - Bill Veeck heads a syndicate that purchases the
Cleveland Indians. This launches Veeck on a long career as a
lively promoter.
1947 - Ewell Blackwell just misses pitching back-to-back
no-hitters when Eddie Stanky of the Brooklyn Dodgers singles
with one out in the ninth inning. Blackwell then gets Al
Gionfriddo before Jackie Robinson bangs out a single. Blackwell
wins 4-0, his ninth straight win to improve to 11-2. Stanky's
hit ends Blackwell's hitless-inning skein at 19.
1976 - Randy Jones pitches the Padres to a 4-2 win over the
Giants, and ties Christy Mathewson's 63-year-old N.L. record by
going 68 innings without a base on balls. He receives a standing
ovation from the home crowd after striking out Darrell Evans to
end the seventh. His streak ends when he walks catcher Marc Hill
leading off the eighth. It is Jones's 13th win of the year.
1982 - Pete Rose doubles off John Stuper in the third inning
of a 3-2 loss to the Cardinals for his 3,772nd career hit,
moving him past Hank Aaron into second place on baseball's
all-time list.
1984 - In a teary home plate ceremony before the Twins-White
Sox game at the Metrodome, Calvin Griffith and his sister,
Thelma Haynes, sign a letter of intent to sell their 52 percent
ownership of the Twins to Minneapolis banker Carl Pohlad for $32
million. Griffith and his sister had been involved with the
franchise since 1922, when owner Clark Griffith of the
then-Washington Senators adopted them.
1987 - Tom Seaver abandons his comeback attempt with the
injury-riddled Mets and retires with a career record of 311-205,
an ERA of 2.86, 3,640 strikeouts, and 61 shutouts.
1990 - The last-place Braves fire manager Russ Nixon and
replace him with general manager Bobby Cox, who last managed
Toronto in 1985.
1994 - Mets reliever John Franco earns his 253rd career save
to break Dave Righetti's record for most saves by a lefthander.

Today In White Sox History - June 22nd

June 22, 1938 - White Sox outfielder Hank Steinbacher becomes
the second player in franchise history to rap out six hits in a
game. Steinbacher goes 6 for 6 with two RBI and three runs
scored in the Sox 16 - 3 win over the Senators at Comiskey Park.

I accidentally switched back to the game while the rain delay
was still going on and caught an inning or so of some stupid
meaningless game between the Sox and Cubs from 2006. One fun
thing though, was seeing one Juan Pierre stepping up to the
plate, AGAINST the Sox. The hilarious hat-under-the-helmet, the
fake bunt attempt on first pitch, the weak 2 hopper for an easy
out, it was all there. It was pretty nice to be on the other
side of that, even if it was just reliving the past for a few
moments.

June 23, 2006 - White Sox starter Jose Contreras establishes a
franchise mark, surpassing LaMarr Hoyt and Wilson Alvarez, by
winning his 16th consecutive decision as Chicago beat the Astros
7-4 in a match up of last year's World Series rivals. The Cuban
right-hander, whose last defeat occurred on August 15 last
season against the Twins, hasn't been beaten in his past 21
regular season starts. White Sox outfielder Scott Podsednik had
two hits including his second homer of the season and drove in
four runs in the game.

On June 23 in Baseball History...
1917 - Boston pitcher Babe Ruth starts against Washington.
He walks leadoff man Eddie Foster, griping to plate umpire Brick
Owens after each pitch. On ball four, Ruth plants a right to the
umpire's jaw. He is ejected, and Ernie Shore relieves. Foster is
caught stealing, and Shore retires all 26 men he faces in a 4-0
win, getting credit in the books for a perfect game.
1932 - Lou Gehrig plays his 1,103rd successive game in a
Yankees uniform, equaling Joe Sewell's record with one team
(Cleveland).
1961 - Ernie Banks voluntarily takes the bench as a sore
knee brings his 717 consecutive-games-played streak to an end.
1962 - Larry Doby, retired from the Cleveland Indians, signs
on with the Chunichi Dragons. He becomes, with Don Newcombe, the
first former major league player to toil for a Japanese team.
Doby's season batting average will be a mediocre .225.
1963 - After taking Phillies pitcher Dallas Green deep,
Jimmy Piersall runs around the bases in the correct order, but
backward, to celebrate his 100th career home run. Baseball
Commissioner Ford Frick, who was in the stands, was not amused.
The Mets' outfielder, who thought of the stunt after being
disappointed by the lack of attention Duke Snider's 400th
round-tripper received, will be released two days later by
manager Casey Stengel.
1971 - In a spectacular performance, Phillies pitcher Rick
Wise no-hits the Reds 4-0 and hits two home runs in the game.
Wise gets Pete Rose for the last out.
1973 - Phillies pitcher Ken Brett beats the Expos 7-2 and
hits a home run for a major-league record for a pitcher fourth
consecutive game. He hit home runs on June 9, 13, and 18: he
will total ten for his career.
1981 - Dave Koza scores Marty Barrett with a bases-loaded
single in the bottom of the 33rd inning, giving Pawtucket a 3-2
win over Rochester and ending the longest game in professional
baseball history. The game had been suspended April 19 after 32
innings and eight hours, seven minutes of play, but the
continuation took only eighteen minutes to complete. Bob Ojeda
pitches one inning to earn the win.
1984 - Chicago's Ryne Sandberg hit two late-inning home runs
off St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Bruce Sutter to tie the game
twice as the Cubs went on to win 12-11 in 11 innings. Sandberg
led off the ninth inning with a solo home run to tie the game
9-9 then hit a two-run, two-out homer in the 10th to tie the
game 11-11.
1988 - George Steinbrenner fires Billy Martin for the fifth
time, replacing him with Lou Piniella. In 1985, Piniella was
fired and replaced by Martin. In 1985, Martin was fired and
replaced by Piniella. New York's 40-28 record is the fourth best
in the big leagues, but the Yankees had just completed a 2-7
road trip.
1994 - Replays show that A's pitcher Bobby Witt beat Kansas
City's Greg Gagne to first base in the sixth inning, but umpire
Gary Cedarstrom sees it differently. The infield hit is the only
blemish on what otherwise would have been a perfect game.

June 24, 1969 - Beltin' Bill Melton hit three solo home runs in
the second game of a doubleheader sweep by the White Sox at
Sick's Stadium in Seattle. However it was catcher Ed Hermann
who supplied the game winning solo homer with a two-out blast in
the top of the ninth inning as the White Sox beat the Pilots 7 -
6.

June 24, 1977 - An embarrassing moment for White Sox outfielder
Ralph Garr and, as it turned out, a costly one for the team. In
the 3rd inning of a game in Minnesota, Garr hit what appeared to
be a three run home run... however as he was running the bases
he passed catcher Jim Essian who waited at first base to make
sure the ball was, in fact, a home run. Garr was called out for
passing the runner and awarded a two run single. The White Sox
wound up losing the game 7 - 6.
