Tremendous respect for that man. He didn't back down from anything if he thought he was in the right.

On May 20 in Baseball History...​
  • 1920 - Requested by Cubs officials, policemen disguised as soldiers, farmers, and bootblacks raid the bleachers and arrest 24 fans for gambling. Meanwhile, Grover Alexander blanks the Phillies 6-0.

  • 1941 - Outfielder Taffy Wright of the Chicago White Sox doubles to drive in a run and sets a Pale Hose record by driving in at least one run in 13 consecutive games. Wright has 22 RBI in the streak, and is one RBI-game shy of tying the A.L. record for most consecutive games an RBI.

  • 1945 - Pete Gray is the star in St. Louis as the Browns sweep the Yankees 10-1 and 5-2. Gray, who has only one arm, has two RBI on three hits in the opener and in the nightcap scores the winning run and hauls in seven fly balls, three on spectacular catches.

  • 1946 - Claude Passeau of the Chicago Cubs makes his first error since September 21, 1941, ending his streak with an all-time pitcher's fielding record of 273 consecutive errorless chances.

  • 1983 - In a 5-0 loss to the Padres, Steve Carlton strikes out four batters to move past Walter Johnson into second place on baseball's all-time strikeout list. Carlton's 3,511 strikeouts leave him ten behind Nolan Ryan, who broke Johnson's record earlier this season.

  • 1984 - Boston's Roger Clemens strikes out seven batters in seven innings en route to his first major league victory, 5-4 over the Twins.

  • 1985 - The Indians-Brewers game at Cleveland Stadium becomes the first one rained out this season, ending a record string of 458 major league games played since Opening Day without a payoff on a rain check. Since 1900, no season had survived without at least one April shower.

  • 1991 - Jeff Reardon gains his 300th career save in relief of Matt Young and Jeff Gray. Reardon preserves the 3-0 Boston win over Milwaukee.

  • 1992 - After a 12-inning loss to the Yankees, Angels manager Buck Rodgers says, "We can't start feeling sorry for ourselves or we'll get run over."
