June 6 in Tigers and mlb history:

1921 - Bill Gatewood of the Detroit Stars pitches the first no-hitter in the history of the Negro National League, defeating the Cuban Stars 4 - 0.

1944 - All major league games are canceled as the country's focus is turned toward Europe while allied forces invade occupied France.

1958 - Ozzie Virgil, acquired from the New York Giants in January, becomes the first black player to appear in a Detroit Tigers game. The versatile Dominican will eventually play every position but pitcher during his nine-year major league career.

1990: Cecil Fielder hits three home runs in a game, as Detroit beats the Indians 6 - 4. Fielder becomes the fourth American League player to have two three-homer games in a season.

1992 - In the Tigers 6-2 victory over New York at Yankee Stadium, Lou Whitaker collects his 2,000 career hit. The milestone comes in the 4th inning when Whitaker grounds a double down the right field line off Scott Kamieniecki. In his next at-bat, ?Sweet Lou? slams a home run to deep right field. Whitaker is the seventh Tiger to reach the 2,000-hit mark and the first since his teammate Alan Trammell who did it in 1991.

2005 - Infielder Placido Polanco is sent by the Philadelphia Phillies to the Detroit Tigers in exchange for reliever Ugueth Urbina and utility infielder Ram?n Martinez. Urbina, a two-time All-Star as a closer, will become the setup man for Billy Wagner in Philadelphia, and Polanco will become the starting second baseman in Detroit.
