1959: A crowd of 93,103 comes to the Los Angeles Coliseum on Roy Campanella Night to show their affection for the paralyzed former Dodger catcher. The Dodgers are beaten by the Yankees 6-2 in an exhibition game that follows the ceremonies. The crowd sets a record for a baseball game that will not be broken until the Dodgers return to the Coliseum for another exhibition contest on March 29, 2008.
1966: After only four wins in the first twenty games, Yankee manager Johnny Keane is fired and replaced by the team's GM and former skipper Ralph Houk.
1999: Hideki Irabu opposes Mac Suzuki of the Mariners in the first match-up of Japanese starting pitchers in major league history.
2017: In a nationally televised Sunday night game, the Yankees defeat the Cubs 5-4 in 18 innings at Wrigley Field. The longest interleague game in history features a record 48 strikeouts ~ 26 by Yankees pitchers, and 22 by the Cubs. New York seem on their way to a victory with a 4-1 lead in the 9th, but Aroldis Chapman allows three runs, the last on a bases-loaded HBP of Anthony Rizzo. There is no more scoring until the top of the 18th, when Aaron Hicks, who has struck out four times in the game, leads off with a bunt single off Pedro Strop and moves to second on catcher Willson Contreras' throw, which ends up in right field. After moving to third, he scores on Starlin Castro's infield grounder, when shortstop Addison Russell's throw home is wide of the mark. Chasen Shreve pitches three scoreless innings for the win, which he ends by striking out pitcher Kyle Hendricks, who came in as a pinch-hitter with runners on first and second.
