1976 — New York opened the refurbished Yankee Stadium with an 11-4 rout of the Minnesota Twins.
1987 — Juan Nieves threw the first no-hitter in Brewers history as Milwaukee beat Baltimore 7-0.

Cubs 14, Braves 10
CHICAGO — Javy Baez had a three-run double as Chicago scored nine times in the eighth inning on just three hits, rallying past Atlanta in cold, wet and windy conditions at Wrigley Field. The Cubs trailed 9-1 in the third inning, were still down 10-2 in the sixth and went into the eighth behind 10-5. Chicago then used five walks, two hit batters, an error and a wild pitch to come back against four Atlanta relievers — all nine runs scored after there were two outs. Ozzie Albies had three hits, including a homer, and drove in four runs for the Braves.

Diamondbacks 9, Dodgers 1
LOS ANGELES — A.J. Pollock homered twice while Paul Goldschmidt and Alex Avila also went deep as Arizona continued its recent dominance over Los Angeles.
