Minnesota sends pitcher Bill Krueger to Montreal for OF Darren Reed. It is the third season that Krueger has split between the two leagues: only Sal Maglie has done it more often.

The Padres trade P Craig Lefferts to the Orioles in exchange for minor league P Erik Schullstrom and a player to be named.

The Red Sox send P Jeff Reardon to the Braves in exchange for minor leaguers Nate Minchey and Sean Ross.

Cubs rookie P Jim Bullinger tosses a one-hitter against the Giants in his third big league start, defeating San Francisco, 3 – 1. The only hit he allows is Kirt Manwaring’s home run in the 8th inning.

Boston 1B Scott Cooper records five hits in the Red Sox’s 4 – 2, 10-inning win over the Angels.

Trailing 3 – 1 to the Reds in the 9th, Bobby Bonilla hits a dramatic 3-run homer off Rob Dibble to give the Mets a 4 – 3 win.

1992 – After striking out his 1,000th career batter in Atlanta’s 7 – 6 win over Philadelphia, Braves P Charlie Leibrandt rolls the ball into the Atlanta dugout to keep as a souvenir. Unfortunately, he forgets to call time, and baserunner Ricky Jordan is allowed to advance on the error.

In a 22-2 rout, the Blue Jays pitching staff yields 31 hits, of which 22 are singles, to help the Brewers set an American League record. The ‘Brew Crew’ scores in every inning except the fifth inning in the SkyDome contest.
