History

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL

———

Aug. 28

1971 — In the nightcap of a doubleheader, Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Rick Wise hit two home runs to help himself to a 7-3 victory over the San Francisco Giants.

1990 — Ryne Sandberg became the first second baseman in history to have consecutive 30-homer seasons, leading the Cubs to a 5-2 victory over the Houston Astros.

1992 — The Milwaukee Brewers set an American League record with 31 hits and 26 singles in a 22-2 rout of the Toronto Blue Jays.

2014 — San Francisco’s Yusmeiro Petit set a major league record when he retired his 46th batter in a row. Petit got the first eight Colorado hitters, establishing the mark by striking out Charlie Culberson. That broke Mark Buehrle’s record of 45 straight with the Chicago White Sox in 2009. Petit’s streak covered eight games, six of them in relief.

Interleague

Angels 10, Rockies 7

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Shohei Otani hit a three-run home run, Mike Trout added a solo shot and Los Angeles won a back-and-forth contest over Colorado after surrendering a two-run lead in the eighth when D.J. LeMahieu hit his first grand slam.
