July 17: Quite a day in baseball when you think about it...
There was a 16 inning 1-0 game courtesy of the Red Sox and Rays. The Rays had only three hits.

San Francisco and San Diego went 11 innings in a game that saw no-extra base hits, seven steals, and was won on a suicide squeeze bunt.

The Twins' Jim Thome hit home run #596, the longest ever at Target field -- 490 feet.

The Rangers won their 11th straight.

The Pirates won their 11th series.

The Athletics scored 7 runs in the 1st inning before making an out in a 9-1 win over the Angels.

Starting pitcher Daniel Hudson of the D-Backs had two hits, one a home run, and three RBIs in beating the Dodgers.

Anything else?

1. Yeah..
The Rockies have now lost 13 consecutive games on Sunday. For their last Sunday win you have to go all the way back to April 17th.

2. Unfortunately Satan won, but it took Phil Hughes this far into the season
to get his first win.

4. Another good one...
and reason why I still think the Giants could unload Zito on the Yankees -- if only he showed some consistency.

5. I think you mean good as in adding to the unusualness or uniqueness of the day...
But certainly not a good outcome for all righteous, God-fearing people!!!!!
