| 1962 | At Fenway Park, Earl Wilson, the Red Sox's first black hurler, strikes out five batters and walks four en route to no-hitting the Angels, 2-0. The 27 -year-old right-hander from Ponchatoula (LA) also drives in the first run of the game when he goes deep in the third inning off loser Bo Belinsky, who pitched a no-hitter against the Orioles last month. |
| 1987 | Although the Red Sox has a 9-0 second-inning advantage, Roger Clemens cannot hold the lead, with the Yankees coming back to win in ten innings, 12-11. Boston's third baseman Wade Boggs, who is walked intentionally twice during the Bronx ballpark contest, sees his 25-game hitting streak end in the team's devastating loss. |
