Two-no hitters were thrown, hall of famers to be Walter Johnson and Bob feller both tossed no-hitters, Johnson fired a 1-0 gem in 1920 vs the Boston Red Sox, losing a perfect game on Bucky Harris error, and in 1951 Feller got his 3rd career no-hitter, tying the record of Cy Young and Larry Corcoran as Cleveland beat Detroit 2-1 . . . Two historic Parks opened on July 1st, in 1910 White Sox field opens, the White Sox played to a crowd of 24,000 and lost 2-0 to the St. Louis Browns. The field would be renamed Comiskey Park after its team owner, Charlie Comiskey, and in 1920, the St. Louis Cardinals move into Sportsman’s Park, they bowed to the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2, but would go on to win 7 World Championships and house the fantastic career of Stan Musial
