1992 Bret Boone made history when he became part of the first three-generation family to play in major league baseball.

2016 Jose Altuve hit a home run and had five RBI as the Houston Astros beat the Baltimore Orioles 15-8 despite allowing four home runs in the first inning.

Adam Jones hit Collin McHugh’s first pitch into the seats in left field and Hyun Soo Kim singled before Manny Machado, Chris Davis and Mark Trumbo hit home runs in succession.
