What Happened 22 Years Ago Today?

[houdini]

Two California teams, Dodgers and Athletics.

I just watched the "today in baseball" piece on MLBTV.

Who can tell me what happened without looking it up?

It had never happened before - it has not happened since.

Earthquake?

Earthquake?

Almost. I was thinking about that too. That was bad, but your date is off some months.

June 29th, 1990

Hint: Think about what was happening last night.

Wait was it the no hitters. Fernando pitched one for dodgers. I forget who for a's....Dave Stewart?

Was it the injured Kirk Gibson walk off or was that the WS?

I'm thinking it's when Dave Stewart and Fernando both threw no hitters on the same day. I was watching Fernado no hit the Cards. I forget who Stewart no hit.

Toronto.

Yeah, we had a couple near no-hitters last night too.

Great baseball, poor showing by the Rays.
