Today's significance in major league baseball:
1989 – Nolan Ryan strikes out Rickey Henderson to become the first Major League Baseball pitcher to record 5,000 strikeouts. By 1993 he had 5,714 strikeouts, unsurpassed maybe forever.
Birthdays: 1857 – Ned Hanlon; 1939 – Carl Yastrzemski; 1949 – Doug Bair; 1950 – Ray Burris; 1956 – Paul Molitor; 1972 – Steve Kline.
The colors of my shirt match the purple and white uniforms for the Colorado Rockies, the team honored with great attention by my son Jonathan. He and his family will be at Empower Field, aka Mile High Stadium, for a Rockies game later this year!
