The Reds defeat the Braves, 9 – 8, as Cincinnati’s Eric Anthony and Eddie Taubensee both hit pinch-hit home runs in the 8th inning. It is only the second time that a club has hit two pinch homers in the same frame in the National League since 1975.

Rangers’ designated hitter Juan Gonzalez becomes the 34th major leaguer, and the first from Puerto Rico, to hit 400 career home runs. The Juan Gone’s milestone is hit off Anaheim hurler Jarrod Washburn’s first pitch in the second inning during a 7-5 extra inning loss to the Angels.

The Orioles rally for two runs in the 8th inning to beat the Indians’ Sam McDowell, 4 – 3. Dick Hall wins his 10th game with three innings of hitless relief. He also walks no one and ends the year with more wins than walks – 10 wins and only six walks in 61 innings. Not since Slim Sallee’s 21 wins in 1919 when he walked 20 has a pitcher accomplished this. Bret Saberhagen in 1994 will be the next, winning 14 and walking 13. Before Sallee, Christy Mathewson had two seasons of more wins than walks.
