Baseball History -- June 29

Complete entry for June 29 is at BaseballLibrary.com HERE.

Highlighted entry:
1991
The visiting Yankees score 3 in the 9th off Dan Plesac to beat Milwaukee‚ 9-8. Kevin Maas and Jess Barfield homer for the Bombers. Teddy Higuera (3-2)‚ in the first year of a $13 million‚ 4-year contract pitches 7 innings‚ allowing 3 runs. Higuera‚ who started the year on the DL‚ will go on the DL again when a significant tear to his rotary cuff is discovered. This is his last ML appearance.

I was in the County Stadium bleachers for this game. It was a lot of fun...until that whole three in the top of the ninth thing. The way that Higuera pitched that day, no one thought it would be his last outing. Here's to Teddy.
