Saturday, August 6th

IN THE NEWS: The Mariners defeat the Royals, 11-2, to end KC's 14-game winning streak, the 2nd longest in club history. KC started the streak in 3rd place, the same spot they're in today.

Detroit defeats Toronto, 3-2, as Blue Jay OF Joe Carter steals second base in the 4th inning. In doing so, he becomes just the 10th player in history to amass 300 home runs and 200 SBs.

Cards lefty Danny Jackson severely sprain his right ankle while running the bases, and will be out the rest of the year. The ligament will not respond to treatment and Jackson will miss the opening of the 1995 season. Jackson underwent thyroid-cancer surgery after the 1993 season and did not react well to the medication. He started the season by losing nine straight and is at 2–12 now.
