1977 - Cardinals outfielder Lou Brock steals second base in a 4-3 loss to the Padres. It is career steal 893 for Brock, breaking Ty Cobb's modern record. Brock wasted no time, leading the game off with a walk, he stole second base off the battery of Danny Freisleben and Dave Roberts, he advanced to third and scored on Jerry Mumphries single. Brock would steal another base in the seventh after a force out and was left stranded in the 7th at third in the Cardinal loss.
1972 - During a 3-0 win over St. Louis, San Francisco's Jim Barr retires the first 20 batters to face him, his no hit bid was broken up by a pinch hit double by Bernie Carbo. Six days earlier, Barr had gotten out the last 21 Pittsburgh Pirates to face him in a 8-0 Giants victory, the only Pirates to reach in the game were second inning singles by Willie Stargell and Milt May and a walk to pitcher bob Moose in the third inning. This gave Barr a major league-record of 41 consecutive batsmen retired, which stood until Mark Buehrle broke it 36 years later in 2009 retiring 45 straight.
1925 - After a night on the town, Babe Ruth shows up late for batting practice. Miller Huggins suspends Ruth and slaps a $5,000 fine on him for disobeying orders on the field and team rules off the field. Ruth is forced to apologize before he's reinstated nine days later. The day after his return to the lineup, Ruth hits career home run number 300. A few days later, Ruth will take his case to Yankee owner Jacob Ruppert, who sides with Huggins.
