- 2004 In a blockbuster trade, the Marlins deal Brad Penny, the winner of two World Series games last season, first baseman Hee Seop Choi, and southpaw prospect Bill Murphy (who will be traded to the Diamondbacks tomorrow) to the Dodgers for backstop Paul Lo Duca, relief pitcher Guillermo Mota, and much-traveled outfielder Juan Encarnacion.
- 2017 Texas third baseman Adrian Beltre collects his 3000th hit when he doubles in the fourth inning in the Rangers’ 10-6 loss to the Orioles at Globe Life Park in Arlington. The twenty-year veteran, who has also spent time with the Dodgers, Mariners, and the Red Sox, is the first-ever Dominican-born player to reach the coveted milestone.
Lineups when available.

Here’s a good recap of the festivities surrounding Orel’s induction into the Legends of Dodger Baseball Saturday night.

That’s in New Hampshire.
It’s interesting that Gnats and Snakes play four games against each other next – hopefully it’s a draw, or even 3-1 Snakes, while we sweep Oakland. But I’m not sure of anything right now…
Curses. Old friend JT almost wins it for the Sawx. Old friend Joc wins it for the Gnats.
Bosox blow it in 11, with ex-Gnat on the mound.
Ha!
Thank you, Seattle. Now go Sawx!
This was probably the start-to-finish stinker of the season.
I agree.
And then the Sawxpen surrenders the tying run.
Turner puts Sox in the lead and Pederson wins it for Giants
DP followed by a K–perfect ending.
sigh
Thanks, JT!
Now for the Sawxpen to swat the Gnats!
Not helping us out.
Grove first Dodger rookie to get 10Ks or something like that
In between a kazillion hits.
I started out hoping for a win. Now I’m just hoping for a run.
Maybe Kike” will pitch the ninth
B2B great defensive plays by the Dodgers.
Rojas and Outman giving a show.!
This is the fourth straight series against playoff-bound teams or teams very close to them, and the record is two series wins, one series loss already and one that looks very much like another barring a huge outburst. That’s not a great sign for October baseball.
Pitching pitching pitching.
Kershaw talking to Roberts in the dugout trying to keep his eyes off the wreck.
And now Kershaw babbling about something utterly irrelevant to baseball. I’ve put him on mute.
Joe asked him. Clayron didn’t volunteer to talk about it.
Grove can save the bullpen the hard way. Taking one for the team.
Good point.
I think Grove is making a case to be the the first youngster to go back to OKC.
Not a confidence builder for Grove
Dave should pull him. Not good for the youngster.
Are we just giving up then?
I don’t think it’s Michael’s day, Roberts.
Digging a deeper hole.
Folks are gonna start putting De La Cruz on automatically.
There are times when it’s better to strike out, Max.
Rats. Curse of the DP strikes again.
Good AB for Peralta until he swung at ball four.
That’s more like it, Michael!
Ouch. Unhappy start to Grove’s day.
Someone needs to slow this train down.
Gotta avoid the derailment.
Sigh…
Keep it at one, maybe?
This is not an auspicious beginning, Grove. Geeze.
Grove has done better against lefties, but…
Grover, this is not the way to start.
