A baseball first: All 15 home teams win on the same night
The St. Louis Cardinals’ 4-3 comeback win over Pittsburgh Tuesday night made them a part of history: For the first time ever, all 15 home major league baseball teams won their games on the same night.
It has never happened before, though the odds are astronomical – 1 in 32,768, according to STATS.
All the home teams have won on previous occasions, but only when fewer games were involved. The last time it happened was in 1989, when all 11 home teams won on a night in September.
