On August 21, 1986 — In the Red Sox’s 24-5 rout the Cleveland Indians, Spike Owen ties a major league mark, becoming the first major leaguer to score six runs in a game since Johnny Pesky, also playing for Boston, accomplished the feat in 1946. The light-hitting shortstop was obtained three days ago, along with center fielder Dave Henderson, from the Mariners in exchange for Rey Quinones and cash.

For the first time in over a century, the Yankees win a game in spite of being limited to only one hit. Starlin Castro hits a two-run homer off Jake Odorizzi of the Rays in the 7th inning, and it is enough to procure a 2 – 1 win. The last time the Yankees had won a game while collecting a single hit was on July 10, 1914, when Charlie Mullen had the only safety in the second game of a doubleheader against Cleveland, shortened to 6 innings by darkness.
