NEW! Sports & Leisure History Look-Back for the week of August 17, 2026. Topics include:
A. The Gashouse Gang! On August 23, 1931, the #stlcards swept a doubleheader against the #Braves to go up 34 games over .500. Big effort from future #MLB HOFers Frankie Frisch and Chick Hafey not only played a big role in these games, but in the #STLCardinals late 1920's, early 1930's dynasty. #ForTheLou
B. On August 22, 1960, #Dodgers great (and later Manager of the Miracle #Mets) Gil Hodges hit a solo HR, his 352nd of his career. This set a new mark for most homers by a right-handed National League hitter. He retired with 370. But it wouldn't be until years later that he was enshrined in the #MLB HOF -- far too long of a wait. Clayton and Jeff look at his career and HOF legitimacy.
C. Former #Expos and #KCRoyals player Warren Cromarte isn't normally mentioned with big historical moments, but he has a unique historical spot in #baseball. On August 17, 1991, he hit a solo HR -- his only of the 1991 season. It was 8 years after his previous home run that's because in 1983, he left #MLB to go to the #NPB - Japanese Professional Baseball. He was the first player to leave the Majors for Japan while still in his prime. Clayton and Jeff talk about Cromarte and how working with #SadaharuOh, he retooled his career.
D. On August 19, 1993, #TeamUSA dismantled Team Great Britain & Ireland in the #WalkerCup. And, on August 21, 2008, the United States dominated at the #TenpinBowling Men's World Championship. Clayton and Jeff discuss the importance of the amateur #golf tournament and international #bowling event when it comes to growth of their respective sports.
E. On August 20, 1988, Yordanka Donkova of #Bulgaria set a world record in the #100Mhurdles. Part of 5 world records that she set from 1986 to 1988. Both a dominant athlete and trailblazer in women's #trackandfield who more people should know about.
F. On August 18, 1996, #ValentinoRossi, at age 17, won his very first #MotoGP race -- the Czech Republic #GrandPrix. Rossi is the most significant and greatest rider in #moto history.
