How Was The Game? (July 6, 2014).
from the nedtb
 
July 7 in Tigers and mlb history:

1912 - To fend off possible future challenges to the legality of the standard contract and its reserve clause, new wording provides for compensation to the player for the right to renew. A player's salary is specified as 75 percent for his services and 25 percent for the privilege of reserving them for the following season.

1922: Commissioner Landis bars major league teams from playing in Montreal.

1935: At a special meeting, the American League owners raise the waiver price to $7,500.

1951: OF Hoot Evers of the Tigers goes 5 for 5 and scores five runs against the Indians as the motormen roll, 13 - 3. Bob Cain is the victor with batterymate Joe Ginsberg driving in five runs on four hits.

1959 - At Forbes Field, Hank Aaron's eighth-inning single ties the score and a triple hit by Willie Mays plates Aaron with the winning run in the 5 - 4 All-Star victory in the first of the two Mid-Summer Classics to be played during the season. Don Drysdale pitches perfect ball the first three innings.

1964 - Johnny Callison's 9th-inning 3-run home run off Dick Radatz caps a 4-run rally and gives the National League a 7 - 4 win in the All-Star Game at Shea Stadium. This evens the series at 17.

1968: Denny McLain, the major leagues' winningest pitcher with 16, helps Detroit take a 9 1/2 game lead in the American League at the All-Star break, as the Tigers sweep the A's, 5 - 4 and 7 - 6. McLain wins the opener when Willie Horton clubs a 3-run homer, and Al Kaline matches that in the nitecap.

1971: Commissioner Bowie Kuhn announces that players from the Negro Leagues elected to the Hall of Fame will be given full membership in the museum. It had been previously announced that they would be honored in a separate wing.

1998 - In the highest-scoring game in All-Star history, the American League beats the senior circuit, 13 - 8 in the thin air at Coors Field in Denver in the 69th All-Star Game. The 21-run total surpasses the previous record set in 1954 when the American League beat the Nationals, 11 - 9 in Cleveland's Municipal Stadium. Baltimore's Roberto Alomar is named the game's MVP, going 3 for 4 with a home run, RBI, stolen base and two runs scored.

2005 - The sports of baseball and softball are dropped from the for the 2012 Olympic Games scheduled to take place in London. It is the first time in 69 years that events have been cut from the games. There is criticism that these events are American-dominated, though the Cuban national team won Gold in 2004 and Australia won Silver. Japan and South Korea have appeared in the Silver Medal game in the past as well. Another reason given is that top professional players do not always appear, though Nippon Pro Baseball and the Korea Baseball Organization have routinely sent their top stars, as does the Cuban National League.
