1950 — Joe Dimaggio became the first player to hit three home runs in one game at Griffith Stadium, and the New York Yankees beat the Washington Senators 8-1.

1974 — Lou Brock tied Maury Wills’ single-season stolen base record in the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies. He broke the record with steal No. 105 in the seventh inning.

1997 — Mark Mcgwire joined Babe Ruth as the only players in major league history with consecutive 50-homer seasons by hitting a 446-foot shot off Shawn Estes in the third inning of St. Louis’ game against at San Francisco. Mcgwire, who hit a major league-leading 52 homers for Oakland last season, became the first player with backto-back 50-homer seasons since Ruth did it in 1927 and 1928.
