Today in Baseball History:
- 1963 - In the first (and last) Hispanic-American major league all-star game, the NL team beats the AL 5-2 at the Polo Grounds.
- 1974 - Oakland slugger Reggie Jackson connects for a home run off Andy Messersmith, and pitcher Ken Holtzman scores the second run in the 5th inning on a suicide squeeze. Oakland wins the World Series opener, 3 - 2, as the Dodgers strand 12 baserunners.
