MP3 of the Day

On this day in 1998, 20 year old, Kerry Wood made his fifth career start in the Major Leagues as a Chicago Cub. He would throw a one-hit, no walk, 20-strikeout shutout against the Houston Astros, breaking Bill Gullickson's single-game rookie record of 18 strikeouts in 1980. This outing is considered by many to be among the most dominant pitching performances in the history of baseball. To date, Wood and Bob Feller are the only two pitchers to strike out their age in one game (at age 17, Feller struck out 17 batters in one game in 1936). Today we have The Rainbow Connection by THE LOVES.
