Back in 1899, John McGraw kicked off his managing career at just 26 years old with the Orioles beating the Giants 5-2, 3 in his debut. Fast forward to 1923, and Yankee Stadium opened his doors to a massive crowd of 72,400 fans were babe. Ruth smashed a homer to leave the Yankees over the Red Sox. A few decades later, 1945 saw one armed outfielder Pete Gray not to hit in his big lead debut for the Browns in a 7-1 win against Detroit. Then in 1946, Jackie Robinson stepped up for his first minor league game with the Montreal Royals, paving his path to breaking barriers. 1964 brought Sandy Kofack striking out the side on just nine pitches for the Dodgers, the first to do it twice in Major League history. Nolan Ryan followed suit in 1970 with 15 strikeouts and just one hit allowed in a met shut

out while the Braves started 19. 82 with an 11-game win streak, a national league record. More recently, Mike Schmidt crushed his 500th homer in 1987 to rally the Phillies. In 2005, the Yankees erupted for 13 runs in one inning against Tampa Bay and Mark Beerell tossed a no-hitter in 2007 by facing exactly 27 batters. Clayton Kershaw just hit his 200th win last year, staying under 90 losses like only a few legends before him.
