This Date in Baseball History

-1912: In a game which purposely matches superstar pitchers, Boston pitcher Smokey Joe Wood bests Senators' legend Walter Johnson, 1-0 for his 30th (14th consecutive) victory in a season in which he would win 34.

-1995: Cal Ripken breaks Lou Gehrig's consecutive game record playing in his 2,131st straight game.

-2000: Rangers' utility player Scott Sheldon becomes only the third player in major league history to play all nine positions in one game.
