Matt Clement becomes the 21st big league pitcher and the first Chicago Cubs pitcher in over a century to hit with pitches three batters in one inning to tie a major league record. The victims plucked in the 5th inning of the first game of a doubleheader against the Pirates are Bobby Hill, Jason Kendall and Craig Wilson.

Mariano Rivera posts his 300th career save in a Yankees’ 7 – 5 victory over Tampa Bay. He also becomes the first Yankee and 17th reliever in major league history to reach the milestone.
