1971 Willie Mays, a month shy of his fortieth birthday, homers on Opening Day and will hit home runs in the next three games to tie a major league record.


1973 At Fenway Park, Yankees' Ron Blomberg becomes the first designated hitter in major league history. In the historic plate appearance, the first DH draws a first-inning walk off Luis Tiant as the Red Sox rout the Bronx Bombers, 15-5.


1973 On Opening Day at Three Rivers Stadium in front of record crowd of 51,695, the Pirates retire Roberto Clemente's uniform number 21 posthumously. The Pittsburgh right fielder died in a plane crash on New Year's Eve attempting to bring relief aid to earthquake-stricken Managua, Nicaragua.


1974 The Yankees begin a two year stint at Shea as Yankee Stadium is remodeled.


1977 For the second time in nine years, a new franchise makes its major league debut in Seattle. The Mariners lose their first regular-season game at Kingdome to Frank Tanana and the Angels, 7-0.


1982 A freak heavy spring snow storm brings subfreezing temperatures across the northeast and midwest and causes the postponement of home openers for the Yankees, Tigers, White Sox, Brewers, Indians, Phillies and Pirates.
