| 1938 | The Cardinals deal a declining Dizzy Dean to Chicago for RHP Curt Davis, LHP Clyde Shoun, outfielder Tuck Stainback, and $185,000. During his four years in the Windy City, the future Hall of Fame right-hander will compile a 16-8 record for the Cubs. |

Philadelphia's Cal McLish and Bob Gibson of the Cardinals fail to finish an inning when each starter allows six runs to score in the first frame. Tossing 8⅓ innings of shutout ball, Ernie Broglio gets credit for the win when the Redbirds beat the Phillies in the Connie Mack Stadium contest, 12-6.

| 1978 | Cardinal Bob Forsch, facing 29 batters, no-hits the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-0, at Busch Stadium. Less than a year later, Bob's older brother, Astro's right-hander, Ken, throws a no-no against Atlanta, making them the first siblings to throw no-hitters in the big leagues. |
| 1984 | In his first three at-bats, A's Dave Kingman hits three home runs, including a grand slam, driving in eight runs against the Mariners in a 9-6 victory. 'Sky King' will compile five three-round-tripper games during his 16-year career, second only to Johnny Mize, who accomplished the feat six times from 1938 to 1950 while with the Cardinals and Yankees. |
