History

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL

———

Sept. 21

1947 — Boston’s Johnny Pesky surpassed the 200-hit mark for the third time in as many major league seasons. He is the only player to lead a league in hits in his first three seasons in the game.

1995 — Colorado’s John Vander Wal set a major league record with his 26th pinch hit of the season.

2001 — Albert Pujols hit a grand slam and doubled in a run in St. Louis’ 9-5 win over Pittsburgh. The slam gave him the major league record for extra-base hits by a rookie (83), one more than Johnny Frederick’s total for Brooklyn in 1929.

2013 — Matt Carpenter broke Stan Musial’s team record for doubles by a left-handed batter in a season. Carpenter’s fifth-inning double was his 54th of the season, one more than Musial’s total in 1953.

American League

Red Sox 11, Yankees 6

NEW YORK — Boston won its third consecutive AL East championship, clinching on enemy turf over rival New York. Mookie Betts homered, doubled twice and drove in five runs, finishing with four hits as the Red Sox overcame Giancarlo Stanton’s go-ahead grand slam in the fourth inning.
