This Date in Baseball - New York Yankees set MLB record by homering in their 28th consecutive game

June 25 1934 — Pitcher John Broaca tied a major league record by striking out five consecutive times but pitched the Yankees to an 11-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Lou Gehrig had better luck at the plate, hitting for the cycle. 1937 — Augie Galan of Chicago became the first National League switch-hitter to homer from both sides of the plate in the Cubs' 11-2 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers. 1950 — Chicago's Hank Sauer hit two home runs and two doubles to send the Cubs past the Philadelphia Phillies 11-8. 1961 — Baltimore and California used a major league record 16 pitchers, eight by each side, as the Orioles edged the Angels 9-8 on Ron Hansen's 14th-inning homer. 1968 — Bobby Bonds, in his first major league game, hit a grand slam off John Purdin to help San Francisco to a 9-0 win over Los Angeles. 1988 — Cal Ripken Jr. plays in his 1,000th consecutive game. 1998 — Sammy Sosa broke the major league record for homers in a month, hitting his 19th of June leading off the seventh inning of the Cubs' 6-4 loss to Detroit. Sosa passed the mark set by Detroit's Rudy York in August 1937. 1999 — Jose Jimenez, a rookie right-hander having one of the worst seasons than any other NL pitcher, threw St. Louis' first no-hitter in 16 seasons, outdueling Randy Johnson in a 1-0 victory over Arizona. 2002 — Luis Pujols of the Detroit Tigers and Tony Pena of the Kansas City Royals became the first Dominican-born managers to oppose each other in a major league game. 2007 — A fan charged at Bob Howry during the Cubs' 10-9 win over Colorado after the reliever helped blow an 8-3 lead in the ninth inning. Howry gave up back-to-back RBI singles to Garrett Atkins and Brad Hawpe and a three-run homer to Troy Tulowitzki. The fan then jumped onto the field from the roof of the Rockies' dugout and made it a few feet from the mound before security guards tackled him. Howry earned the victory when Alfonso Soriano hit a game-ending two-run single in the bottom of the inning. 2010 — Arizona's Edwin Jackson pitched a 1-0 no-hitter against Tampa Bay at Tropicana Field. 2010 — The Cubs suspend pitcher Carlos Zambrano indefinitely after he throws a tantrum in the dugout after giving up 4 runs in the 1st inning of a 6 - 0 loss to the White Sox. 'Big Z' blames first baseman Derrek Lee for letting a Juan Pierreground ball past him for a double that starts the rally, although the hard-hit ball was hardly catchable. Tom Gorzelanny replaces Zambrano who is removed from the game by manager Lou Piniella. 2011 — Cleveland's Tony Sipp balked home the only run with the bases loaded in the seventh inning of a 1-0 loss to San Francisco. Sipp slightly flinched his left arm before throwing a pitch to Emmanuel Burriss, allowing Miguel Tejada to score and sending San Francisco to its fourth straight win. There also were two errors in the inning by second baseman Cord Phelps that spoiled a strong start by Justin Masterson. 2013 — Eric Filia drove in a career-high five runs, Nick Vander Tuig limited Mississippi State to five hits in eight innings, and UCLA won 8-0 for its first national baseball championship. 2014 — Tim Lincecum pitched his second no-hitter against the San Diego Padres in less than a year, allowing only one runner and leading the San Francisco Giants to a 4-0 win. 2015 — The San Francisco Giants hit four triples in a game for the first time in 55 years, including a pair by Brandon Belt in a 13-8 win over the San Diego Padres. Brandon Crawford and Matt Duffy also tripled for San Francisco, which had not tripled four times in a game since Sept. 15, 1960, when Willie Mays hit three and Eddie Bressoud one at Philadelphia. 2018 — The St. Louis Cardinals record the 10,000th win in team history with a 4-0 defeat of the Cleveland Indians.. They are the sixth major league team to do so. 2019 — The New York Yankees set a new major league record by homering in their 28th consecutive game. 2021 — Philadelphia Philles pitcher Aaron Nola ties Tom Seaver's 51-Year old MLB record of ten consecutive strike outs in a 2-1 loss to the Mew York Mets. 2022 — Three Astros pitchers combine to no-hit the Yankees, 3 - 0. 2023 — George Springer leads off the bottom of the 1st for the Blue Jays against the Athletics with a homer off Luis Medina. The 55th leadoff home run of his career gives him sole possession of second place on the all-time list, behind only Rickey Henderson. The Blue Jays win handily, 12 - 1. _____

Auburn's Fralick, Rembert named Freshman All-Americans by Baseball America

Fralick and Rembert made early impacts for the Tigers, impressing the experts at Baseball America. The awards keep rolling in for Auburn baseball after their turnaround season. The latest players acknowledged for their 2025 season are freshmen Chase Fralick and Chris Rembert. On Monday, they were both named to the First Team Freshman All-America team by Baseball America. Both Fralick and Rembert were honored this season, along with Bub Terrell, on the Freshman All-SEC Team. Fralick played catcher for the Tigers in 2025. He was third on the team with a batting average of .335 and was fifth on the team with 41 RBIs. He played well in helping guide the Tigers to a Regional Championship. In the three games versus Central Connecticut State, Stetson, and NC State, he had four hits and one RBI. Fralick scored two runs in an 11-1 win over NC State to clinch the Regional Championship. Second baseman Chris Rembert was not only on the Freshman All-SEC Team but was also on the All-SEC Second Team. He was second on the Tigers with a batting average of .344 and third on the team with 72 hits. Rembert was also third on the team with ten home runs behind Ike Irish and Cooper McMurray. Rembert had perhaps one of his best games of the season against NC State with four hits and four RBIs. He had another four-hit game earlier in the season against Mississippi State in a 6-5 win on April 25th. Both Rembert and Fralick were huge parts of the Tigers' success, as they were one of the top seeds in the NCAA Baseball Tournament and hosted their first-ever Super Regional. The future is bright for both players and the Tigers. Contact/Follow us @TheAuburnWire on X (Twitter), and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Auburn news, notes, and opinions.

St. Louis Blues Unveil New Uniforms As Part Of 2025 Brand Evolution

More Rovak/St. Louis Blues) For the first time since 1997, the NHL's St. Louis Blues are changing up their look. They've gone back to the future, with new primary uniforms that feature a color palette inspired by the club's original jerseys from 1967. The team's iconic Blue Note logo has also undergone a subtle transformation, and the club is introducing some new marks inspired by its home city. 'The St. Louis Blues are a very tradition-based organization,' said Steve Chapman, the team's executive vice president and chief revenue and marketing officer. 'We have a very close-knit relationship with the city, with our fans and with our alumni, so one thing we were trying to accomplish was to was to honor our history and honor the heritage, but to do it in a way so that we can focus on moving forward — focus on this new era of Blues hockey.'

(Photo by Patrick McDermott/NHLI via Getty Images) The brand evolution project began in 2021, inspired by fans' head-over-heels reactions to the team's first-ever Winter Classic jerseys, from the 2017 event held at Busch Stadium. The popularity of the look led to the team adopting the style for its recent heritage jerseys, and it came out on top of a bracket-style fan poll earlier this year. Now, it becomes the team's everyday look. Jordan Kyrou celebrates a goal at the 2022 NHL Winter Classic at Target Field in Minneapolis, ... More Minnesota.(Photo by Nick Wosika/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) The new away jerseys were inspired by the team's 2022 Winter Classic look, but the cream base has been replaced by a sharp white. 'It absolutely pops,' Chapman said. Two elements of the new design have been hiding in plain site since last New Year's Eve.

More 2024 (Photo by Melissa Tamez/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) When the Blues took to the ice at Wrigley Field for their 6-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks, their latest Winter Classic jerseys included the redesigned Blue Note on the left shoulder, and a new STL mark on the helmet. The new Note has a slightly different shape, thicker keylines and simplifies the design to just blue and yellow, with beige removed. The interlocking STL mark has been a long time coming. Developed in conjunction with Mississippi-based RARE Design, it draws inspiration from a treble clef, paying homage to the musical roots of the city of St. Louis and the Blues' history. 'When you live in a city that has the St. Louis Cardinals and their iconic STL, it's hard to find something that either doesn't remind you of that or just comes off as, for lack of a better word, a little boring,' said Chapman. 'What was great about our work with RARE, the company that we worked with on these designs — I don't think they had any hockey background, but what they did have a background in is understanding the Mississippi Delta blues, which is largely what our team is named for. When they put that musical element into it, it was kind of amazing. Their first rendition, we were like, 'Wow, that's it. They've got it.'' New merchandise highlights the St. Louis Blues' new team marks — the redesigned Blue Note, STL, ... More Fleur and River Music. Two other new marks are also being introduced: a Fleur-de-lis design inspired by the flag of St. Louis and infused with a treble clef and note head, and the River Music mark which combines a trumpet with the city's iconic Gateway Arch. The team's new wordmark and Blues font also draw inspiration from the region's rich musical history. Rather than a re-brand, the team is calling its new designs a brand evolution. And there's still a place for the royal blue designs that have been the primary uniforms since 1997. 'It really was about honoring our history, and there's so much history that's within the current Note,' Chapman said. 'That's what we won the Stanley Cup in (in 2019). So this isn't taking everything and wiping the board clean and starting over with something. It's really evolving into our next step, our next phase.' The design process has been in the works since 2021, but the launch comes at an opportune time. After inking new coach Jim Montgomery to a five-year contract when he was hired last November, the Blues rode a strong second half into their first playoff spot in three years. Alexander Steen is also set to take over from Doug Armstrong as the team's new general manager in 2026. Jerseys won't be available for sale until the fall, but the new design is expected to make its first appearance at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles this Friday, where the Blues currently hold the 19th selection in the first round of the 2025 NHL Draft. 'Whoever our No. 1 draft pick ends up being, that's a pretty cool thing — to be the first official player to don it in that fashion,' said Chapman. 'The draft is always a little bit symbolic of transitioning from one season to the next, so I think this will be a really fun moment for us.' A selection of new St. Louis Blues shirts, hats, hoodies and other apparel and novelties are now available for purchase online and at the STL Authentics team store at Enterprise Center.
