Baseball History -- December 3

Complete entry for December 3 is at BaseballLibrary.com HERE.

Highlighted entries:
1992
The Mariners sign free agent P
Chris Bosio to a 4-year contract.

In April of '93, Bosio would toss a no-hitter for the M's.
1980
Indians outfielder "Super
Joe" Charboneau, who hit .289 with 23 home run and 87 RBI, is named American League Rookie of the Year.

Charboneau had a great 1980, but hurt his back during spring training in 1981 and was never the same. Cleveland let him go in 1983.
1901
At the league meeting, the Milwaukee franchise is officially dropped from the
American League and is replaced by the St. Louis Browns.

The way that the Browns turned out, it was probably a good thing that this happened.
