IN THE NEWS: In the first complete game of his career in which he does not walk at least one batter, Nolan Ryan strikes out 11 Padres in a 2–0 shutout to move back into a first-place tie with Steve Carlton with 3,535 career strikeouts. The two will trade the lead back and forth start by start for much of the summer, but by the end of the season Carlton will have pulled ahead, 3,709 to 3,677.

The Giants do all their scoring in the 4th inning to beat the Reds, 8–5. Darrell Evans has a double and homer in the frame.

In the Cubs 6–3 win over the Cardinals, 2B Ryne Sandberg has 12 assists to tie the ML record.

Toronto outlasts California to win 6–5, in 15 innings. The Jays score three in the 15th and hang on as the Angels score a pair.

In another extra-inning battle at Oakland the White Sox outslug Oakland to win, 12–10. The Sox score three in the top of the 10th, but the A's match it when Dwayne Murphy and Wayne Gross hit back-to-back homers. The Sox then score a pair in the 11th on a triple and home run to win.

Thursday, June 30th

IN THE NEWS: The Reds score eight runs in the first inning and go on to beat the visiting Giants, 15–5. Paul Householder drives in four runs, two on a freak inside-the-park homer. With Ron Oester on 1B, Householder hits a shallow fly that LF Chris Smith loses in the sun and it bounces over his head. Smith then slips going after the ball and the two baserunners race around the bases. Oester slides across the plate just ahead of Householder's slide, which is so close he spikes Oester's knee.

Outfielder Lance Junker of the Redwood Pioneers (California League) connects for two grand slams in the 9th inning against Reno. He is the 3rd to do this tying an organized baseball record.
