Tampa Bay scores four runs in the 9th inning on only one hit – a bases-loaded double by Sean Rodriguez – to beat Toronto, 7 – 6. Jays closer Kevin Gregg issues five walks and throws a wild pitch in the inning, then is ejected by umpire Angel Hernandez for complaining about his calls. His ouster follows shortly after that of Rays manager Joe Maddon, thrown out for disputing a third strike call on Carlos Pena earlier in the inning. The Jays come within an inch of tying the game in the bottom of the 9th, when a drive by Vernon Wells hits the top of the outfield fence but bounces back on the field.

Brooklyn hurler Nap Rucker loses a no-hitter with two outs in the 9th inning when Cincinnati’s Bob Bescher comes through with a hit. Rucker wins the game, 1 – 0, outpitching Frank Smith, who gives up two hits and an unearned run. The Reds set a major-league record for nine innings by going to bat just 24 times (it will be topped in the American League and tied twice in the National League this century) and the two teams combine for just 48 at bats, to tie a major-league record set April 22, 1910.
