When you were a month and 19 days, the Colts played the first Sunday NIGHT game because of the heat.
28 days before your 1st birthday, Ken Johnson no-hit the Reds.
20 days before your 6th birthday Don Wilson no-hit the Reds.
25 days after your 13th birthday, the Astrodome was "rained in".
2 days before your 39th birthday, the Astros retired Dierker's number.Mythical SF Chronicle scouting report: "That Jeff runs like a deer. Unfortunately, he also hits AND throws like one."

You share a birthday with Tilly Walker, Doyle Alexander, Frank White, and Mike Piazza (and Blackie Lawless, guitarist who played in the minors).
On your 3rd birthday, the "asterisk" was removed from Maris' record.
On your 5th birthday, one-time Yank Jim Abbott had a no-hitter.
On your 7th birthday, one-time Yank Robin Ventura hit back-to-back slams.
14 days after your 5th birthday, timeout voided the last out and Yanks got three to win in the 9th.
16 days before your 10th birthday, the Yanks held a lead in their 48th straight game.
12 days before your 17th birthday, Yanks came back from Toronto's leads in seventh, eighth AND ninth innings.

On June 6th 1983. The Chicago Cubs had the day off. After a 4 game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates, and getting ready for a 3 game series against the New York Mets.
But important history on my birthday if you pay attention to war history is D-Day which happened on June 6th, 1942. Which people say is the turning point of World War 2

The Cubs were involved in the first game to be "fogged out" exactly 26 years before you were born.
15 years before you were born, Lopes and Buckner weren't picked until the 2nd round of the draft and Cey not until the 3rd. They were picked by the Dodgers but ALL would play for the Cubs.
11 years before you were born, one-time Cub Eckersley wasn't picked until the 3rd round of the draft.
28 days before you were born, Cubs & Brewers played a 25-inning game.
24 days before your 8th birthday, three generations of Carays announced the Cub game.Mythical SF Chronicle scouting report: "That Jeff runs like a deer.

Hey RuthMayBond, remember what happened on my 10th b-day. I was born May 14, 1957.
Welcome back ARod. Hope you are a Yankee forever.
