SPORTLIGHT
Dec. 31
1974–Catfish Hunter, baseball's first free agent, signs with the New York Yankees.
1982–Jockey Pat Day edges Angel Cordero Jr. by two races to capture leading rider honors. Day rides Dana's Woof and Miltons Magic to victory during the evening program at Delta Downs for 399 wins for the year.
1988–A dense fog rolls in during the second quarter of the Chicago Bears' 20-12 NFC semifinal victory over the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field in Chicago. The fog obscures the game from most of the 65,534 fans present and a national television audience that could watch only ground-level shots.
