April 27, 1983: @astros fireballer Nolan Ryan fanned Brad Mills of the #expos at Olympic Stadium for strikeout number 3,509 to surpass Walter Johnson.
Happy birthday to early @BlueJays star Willie Upshaw, who finished his career with a @sesamestreet-esque 123 home runs.
Nolan Ryan’s 3,509th strikeout moved him past Walter Johnson on the all-time list 41 years ago today. He wouldn’t just break the Big Train’s record, but shatter it – the Ryan Express would pitch for another 10 seasons, finishing with 5,714 Ks. ow.ly/xskL50Rptro
April 25, 1986: Holy Cow⚾️ Tom Candiotti K's Rickey Henderson to lead off game, then proceeds to throw over to 1B 14 times !! …Rickey then gets SB #ForTheLand vs. #RepBX Phil Rizzuto/Billy Martin on call 📺🎙️ #Candyman
Wally Backman hated losing. #LGM #MetsRewind
Game 17 Detroit (Dave Rozema 1-0) at Texas (Frank Tanana 2-1) Arlington Stadium #Tigers lineup Lou Whitaker 2B Alan Trammell SS Bárbaro Garbey 1B Lance Parrish C Larry Herndon LF Chet Lemon CF Tom Brookens 3B Rod Allen DH Rusty Kuntz RF
Happy 61st Birthday to former Blue Jays outfielder Lou Thornton! He played in Class-A in the New York Mets organization in 1984 before being selected in the Rule 5 draft by the Blue Jays. He was required to stay with the Jays for the 1985 season and he batted .236 in 56 games.
Happy '80s Birthday to "Famous" Amos Otis, a Royals staple of the 1970s and early '80s. Amos racked up more than 2,000 hits while making five All-Star teamsand enjoying many dugout heaters. Here is the rest of the action for today in 1980s Baseball: 80sbaseball.com/april26
Baseball Birthday Mike Scott Born today in 1955 in Santa Monica, CA @PeppBaseball #Mets #Astros
4/26/83: Mike Smithson (3-0) allows one unearned run on five hits and strike outs seven Blue Jays, as he outduels Dave Stieb. Buddy Bell and Mickey Rivers drive in a run in the Rangers 2-1 win. #StraightUpTX
Trivia time! The 1986 Seattle Mariners finished last at 67-95. They had seven guys with double-digit home runs, though. Who were the top three with 27, 25, and 24? A little assistance: Alvin Davis swatted 18. ⚾️
Happy 63rd birthday to former Ranger infielder Curtis Wilkerson. Wilkerson played in 610 games for Texas from 1983 to 1988. #StraightUpTX
Steve Lombardozzi turns 64 today. World Series winning 2B for the ‘87 #MNTwins, the finest 2B at turning the double play in team history, hit .412/.474/.647 in the World Series.
April 26, 1988: @Metsrewind HOFer Keith Hernandez hits a pair of HRs and drives in 7 runs to reach the 1,000 RBI mark in his career. The @Mets crush the @Braves, 13-4. #LGM #MetsRewind
4/26/88 Joe Carter goes 2-for-3 with 2 homers and 5 RBI as Cleveland beats Seattle 12-6. Here is the rest of the day in 1980s Baseball: 80sbaseball.com/april26/

To show the company that Otis keeps, here are some CFs that I ranked within 10 spots of Otis (my 54th ranked CF): Ray Lankford Brett Butler Steve Finley Willie Wilson Paul Blair Ellis Burks Damn good player.
Happy Birthday, Amos Otis: 5X All-Star 3X Gold Glove 2X AL Top 5 MVP Finish 2X AL Doubles Leader 2,020 Hits 193 Home Runs 1,007 RBIs 341 Stolen Bases Hit .478 with 3 HR in 1980 WS Do you think Otis belongs on Royals Rushmore?
4/26/92: John Cangelosi and Ivan Rodriguez had RBI singles in the ninth inning to give Texas a 4-2 victory over Boston and a sweep of their doubleheader. Texas won the first game 3-1, sweeping Boston in a doubleheader for the first time since August of 1977, also at Fenway Park.
Part of Neil Allen’s charm is that he couldn’t get his head around that there was a guy with a Twitter account @NeilAllenFan”. It was endearing that he wasn’t able to translate what I was asking to an autograph. 😝 #NeilAllen #HireNeilAllen #LGM
Not only was he a great pinch hitter, he was also a great clutch hitter period! He gave me some great tips how to be a better hitter in clutch situations! I thank God for CJ. 👍🏽🙏🏽👊🏽
I learn things from You People™ every day, and it's great. Today, it was about the pinch-hitting prowess of CLIFF Johnson. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more archetypal 1970s professional hitter; truly one of the great PH guys of his day. Check the PH splits: 20 HR, .876 OPS!
"Disco" Dan Ford had seven RBI in a 9-8 loss in Oakland on this date in 1978. It was the seventh 7+ RBI game in @Twins history. The team record is eight. Can you name the two Twins to knock in eight runs in a game?
“NEXT UP” BOOK UPDATE While I’m still busy promoting “Called Up,” things are moving quicker than anticipated for “Next Up.” I’ve already interviewed 20 former players about their post-playing career transitions. After next week, I plan to slow down on interviews to catch up…
A very special moment for sure!! Just like when he signed my pic he wrote “Bob” at first but changed the B to R which I completely understand (Bob was Neil’s dad’s name). Makes it more personal. 🧡💙 #NeilAllen #Mets #LGM

I enjoyed being around Tony Phillips during his two seasons with the @whitesox. Competed like heck, played anywhere you needed him, grinded every plate appearance, had zero BS, and was fun as heck on the golf course. #RIPTony.
