May 28, 1979: George Brett hits for cycleBrett got a lot of hits in his Hall of Fame career -- 3,154 of them, to
be exact, currently ranking 16th all-time. And he actually hit for the
cycle twice, making him one of 24 players to do so. The first of Jake Marisnick Youth Jerseythose came on Memorial Day in 1979, in a 16-inning 5-4 win over the Orioles.
Brett completed the cycle with a double in the bottom of the 14th
inning… and then he broke out the heroics. Lead off the bottom of the
16th -- having already homered eight innings ago (a shot that
temporarily put the Royals ahead in the eighth) -- Brett ended the game
with a walk-off blast.

RBIs

July 4, 1983: Dave Righetti throws no-hitter
When Righetti took the mound on a 94-degree day in the Bronx, Yankee
Stadium hadn't seen a no-hitter since Don Larsen's perfect game in the
1956 World Series. Facing the rival Red Sox, the Yankees left-hander
handed Jason Castro Youth Jersey Boston its first hitless game in 15 years. Righetti finished the
no-hitter by fanning Wade Boggs -- who struck out only 36 times all
season and led the Majors with a .361 batting average and .444 on-base
percentage. Righetti struck out Boggs twice in the game. He was the only
pitcher all year to do so.

Labor Day

Best of 2017: J.D. Martinez has four-homer game vs. Dodgers
J.D.'s Labor Day performance wasn't just one of the best of the year, it
was a historic game. In the heart of his scorching-hot stretch with the
D-backs, this was the coup de grace. Only 18 players have hit four home
runs in a game in Major League history, and Martinez was lucky No. 18.
Martinez homered off four different pitchers -- Rich Hill, Pedro Baez,
Josh Fields and Wilmer Font -- and entered the record books in his final
at-bat in the ninth inning.
