Friday, May 12th

IN THE NEWS: Against the Pirates, Matt Williams hits his 7th and 8th home runs of the season, and in the process breaks, in a manner of speaking, Roger Maris' 162-game home run record. Williams hit 62 home runs in 161 games spread over three seasons: 11 home runs in the last 30 games of 1993, 43 homers in 115 games in 1994, and eight home runs in the first 16 games of 1995.

The Tigers defeat the Rangers, 6-1, with Buddy Groom getting the win. It is Groom's 1st victory in 77 game appearances over four seasons in the majors. The win lets Groom narrowly avoid breaking the record set by Braves P Ed Olwine, who went winless in 80 appearances from 1986 to 1988.

The Dodgers defeat the Cardinals, 8-4, in a sloppy game marked by an even dozen errors. Third basemen Scott Cooper of St. Louis and Garey Ingram of LA each make three miscues. It is the most errors made in an National League game since June 11, 1959.

The White Sox sign free agent 1B John Kruk.
