1932 Lou Gehrig becomes the first major league player to hit four consecutive home runs in a game, giving the New York Yankees a 20-13 win over the Philadelphia A s. Gehrig s feat, however, is overshadowed by the resignation of John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants for 30 years.

1991 Thomas Hearns becomes a world champion for the sixth time, capturing the WBA light heavyweight title with a 12-round unanimous decision over Virgil Hill.

1992 Chicago s Michael Jordan scores a record 35 points, including a record six 3-pointers, in the first half as the Bulls beat Portland 122-89 in the opening game of the NBA Finals. Jordan finishes with 39 points as Chicago is only two points shy of the largest victory margin in the finals.

1995 Pedro Martinez of Montreal pitches nine perfect innings against San Diego before giving up a leadoff double to Bip Roberts in the 10th inning of the Expos 1-0 win.

1999 Four days after her first LPGA Tour victory, Kelli Kuehne ties the Women s U.S. Open record with an 8-under 64 in the first round to take a one-stroke lead over Juli Inkster.

2001 Karrie Webb wins the U.S. Women s Open in a runaway for the second straight year. Webb wins by eight strokes, the largest margin at a Women s Open in 21 years.
