May 12 in Tigers and mlb history:

1932 - Carey Selph of the Chicago White Sox collects his ninth strikeout of the season. But it won't happen again. Selph will go another 89 games without striking out, to set a major league record, hitting .283 in 396 at-bats in his second and last season. Selph's record will last until 1958, when Nellie Fox sets a new mark with 98 consecutive games whitout striking out.

1948 - Tigers outfielder Doc Cramer, plays in his last game.

1955 - Toothpick Sam Jones of the Chicago Cubs becomes the first black pitcher in major league history to throw a no-hitter and he does it in the hardest way. In the 9th inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Jones walks the bases full and then strikes out Dick Groat, Roberto Clemente and Frank Thomas in a row to preserve his 4 - 0 victory.

1959 - At Yankee Stadium, Yogi Berra commits an error as his errorless streak of 148 games for a catcher comes to an end in a New York 7 - 6 loss to Cleveland.

1961 - In Yankee Stadium, Rocky Colavito sees his dad in an altercation in the stands and jumps in to defend him. He?s ejected but defiant, telling reporters, ?What would you do if you saw someone belting your 60-year-old father??

1963 - Tigers star lefthander Mickey Lolich makes his big league debut. Mickey will win 207 games in 13 seasons wearing the old English D, and lead the league in many pitching categories. He is still the all-time American League leader in strikeouts by a lefthanded pitcher with 2679.

1967 When Tiger star Al Kaline tries to steal second against the Redsox, catcher Bob Tillman throws?but hits relief pitcher John Wyatt in the back of the head. Yours truly was watching this game on a Friday and lmao.

1970 - Ernie Banks hits his 500th career home run off Pat Jarvis in the Cubs' 4 - 3 victory over Atlanta at Wrigley Field. It is also his 1,600th career RBI. The ball, after it bounces back onto the field, is retrieved by Braves left fielder Rico Carty, who gives it to Banks.

1971 - Heinie Manush dies in Sarasota, Florida, at the age of 69. Manush won the American League batting championship in 1926, and twice led the league in hits. A lifetime .330 hitter, Manush gained induction to the Hall of Fame in 1964.

2001: Major League Baseball is ordered by arbitrator Alan Symonette to reinstate nine of the 22 "resigning" umpires let go two years before, and to grant back-pay for the time missed. The order also states that veteran umpires Frank Pulliand Terry Tata do not need to retire after the season, as previously planned.
