Reds reliever Kent Tekulve retires, just 20 appearances shy of Hoyt Wilhelm's all-time games-pitched record of 1,070. Tekulve had posted a 5.02 ERA in 37 games this season.

In the first doubleheader ever played at the Skydome, the Blue Jays sweep a pair from California, 6–4 and 5–4. Both wins go to David Wells pitching in relief, with Henke notching two saves. Wells becomes the first pitcher in five years to win both games of a doubleheader. The next DH in Toronto won't come until October 2001.

IN THE NEWS: Donnie Moore, 35, shoots himself to death at his home after shooting and critically wounding his estranged wife Tonya. Friends said Moore was haunted by the 2-run home run he surrendered to Dave Henderson in game five of the 1986 ALCS, costing the Angels a trip to the World Series, and that he had been even more depressed since his release last month by minor league Omaha.

The Dodgers trade P Tim Leary and SS Mariano Duncan to the Reds for OF Kal Daniels and IF Lenny Harris.
