Greenberg, a two-time AL MVP and two-time World Champion with the Tigers, is one of five players in major league history to have at least three seasons of 150 or more RBIs. The other four are Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx and Al Simmons. Nos. 60-51.

July 21 in Tigers and mlb history:

1936: Mickey Cochrane has a relapse, and Del Baker again takes charge of the Tigers. Detroit takes a pair from the visiting A's winning 8 - 0 behind Tommy Bridges, and 9 - 8 as Schoolboy Rowe wins in relief. The Tigers score a pair in the 8th inning when, with the bases loaded, Mickey Owen hits into a double play. Goose Goslin scores the tying run and Gee Walker, who reaches third base on the play, scores when 1B Chubby Dean is caught napping.

1945 - The Detroit Tigers and the Philadelphia Athletics battle to a 1 - 1 tie in 24 innings. Les Mueller hurls 19 2/3 innings for the Tigers. No hurler has matched this endurance feat.

1959 - Under intense public pressure and the Massachusetts Committee Against Discrimination investigation, the Red Sox become the last club to integrate. Fourteen years after the club passes on Jackie Robinson, despite a successful tryout in 1945, Elijah 'Pumpsie' Green pinch runs and plays shortstop to become the first black to play for the Red Sox. Tomorrow Green will go 0 for 3 against Early Wynn.

1969 - A gala All-Star Game banquet in Washington is one of baseball's great events. An all-time team and all-time living team are announced. Babe Ruth is selected Greatest All-Time Player, and Joe DiMaggio, Greatest Living Player.

1993: In Minnesota's win over Detroit, Tony Phillips goes 0 for 4 with two strikeouts against two Twins pitchers. It is his only game without a hit, walk or hit by pitch in a string of 101 games.

2008 - The Tigers beat the Royals 19 - 4. It is their third time scoring 19 or more runs this season, the first time a major league team had done that since the 1950 Red Sox. Miguel Cabrera drives in six and Matt Joyce five in the rout.
