The Diamondbacks tie a major league record by hitting four consecutive home runs against the Brewers in their 8 – 2 win today. With one out in the 4th, Adam LaRoche, Miguel Montero, Mark Reynolds and Stephen Drewall connect for long balls, to turn a 2 – 0 deficit into a 4 – 2 lead. Chris Young then flies out to deep center to nearly make it 5 homers in the inning. David Bush gives up all four homers, matching a dubious feat last accomplished by Chase Wright of the Yankees on April 22, 2007.

Leo Nunez is placed on the restricted list by the Marlins without the club listing a reason, but the Associated Press has reported that the Florida closer, whose real name is Juan Oviedo, needs to return to the Dominican Republic to deal with legal issues pertaining to the use of fake identification documents. The 29 year-old right-handed reliever used his childhood friend’s identity to receive a more lucrative deal due to being believed only to be 16 years of age instead of 17 when signing his first major league contract.

At Wrigley Field, a bizarre play occurs in the 4th inning when two balls are put into play. On a 3 – 1 count, Bob Anderson’s pitch to Stan Musial is wild and bounces back to the screen. Catcher Sammy Taylor ignores the ball, assuming it ticked off Musial’s bat, but Cubs 3B Alvin Dark rushes in to retrieve the wild pitch/foul tip. The bat boy tosses the ball to field announcer Pat Piper, and Dark finally retrieves it from him. Meanwhile home plate ump Vic Delmore has handed a second ball to Anderson. Through all this, Musial reaches first with what he thinks is ball four, and then streaks for second base. Simultaneously, Dark and Anderson fire to the bag. Anderson’s throw goes into CF, but Dark’s to Ernie Banks catches the sliding Musial. Stan ignores the tag and rambles to third base as play is stopped. Delmore then rules Musial is out at second, while Al Barlick rules Stan safe at first base. Both managers play the game under protest, but the Cards drop theirs after dropping the Cubs, 4 – 1. The National League will drop Vic Delmore at the end of the season.

Pinch-hitting for a struggling Alex Rodriguez in the bottom of the 9th, Raul Ibanez homers off Orioles closer Jim Johnson to tie the score. Yankees manager Joe Girardi’s bold move pays off twice, as Ibanez homers again against Brian Matusz in the 12th inning to give New York a 3 – 2 walk-off victory in Game 3 of the other ALDS. Baltimore had taken a 2 – 1 lead on homers by rookies Ryan Flaherty and Manny Machado off Hiroki Kuroda, until Ibanez turns the game’s tide.
