ByThis Day in Baseball

October 5, 1969 The Mets scored early and often in this one, pounding six Braves pitchers for thirteen hits and eleven runs. Ed Kranepool brought in the first run in the top of the first with a bases-loaded single. Tommie Agee’s two-run home run after a walk next inning extended the Mets’ lead to 3–0….

The Orioles defeat Minnesota in Game 2 of the ALCS, 1-0, with the game’s lone run coming from a Mark Belanger single, two groundouts, and a bunt single by Paul Blair in the bottom of the 11th inning at Memorial Stadium. Dave McNally goes the distance in the longest complete-game shutout in postseason history.
