John Smoltz becomes the Braves’ all-time strikeout leader when Diamondbacks’ third baseman Mark Reynolds becomes the 40 year-old right hander’s 2,913th victim. Phil Niekro previously established the franchise record pitching for the club in Milwaukee and Atlanta for twenty seasons (1964 to 1983).

In the 13th inning at Veterans Stadium, pinch-hitter Todd Pratt hits a two-run home run giving the Philadelphia Phillies a walk-off 6 – 5 victory over the Boston Red Sox. Boston shortstop Nomar Garciaparra’s club-tying record 6 for 6 performance (all singles) cannot prevent the bullpen from blowing three late leads: 2 – 1 in the 8th (Jim Thome’s home run ties it), 3 – 2 in 12th (Thome’s second home run ties it).

Toronto’s Erik Hanson walks Cleveland’s Jim Thome without throwing a fourth ball. With the count 2-2 the pitch is wide and Thome jogs to first base.

The next batter, Albert Belle, hits a three-run double for a 4 – 2 win.
