1995 With two out in the ninth inning at Three Rivers Stadium, Paul Wagner loses a no-hitter against the Rockies on an infield single by Andres Galarraga. The 27-year-old Pirates right-hander will win the game, 4-0, but will lead the National League in losses this season, posting a 5-16 record for Pittsburgh.
2006 In a pregame ceremony at Coors Field, the Rockies unveil a five-sided commemorative plaque planned to mark the exact spot of Mile High Stadium's home plate, now in the parking lot. Although the team played just two seasons at the old ballpark, the structure, built in 1948, served as the home for the popular minor league Denver Bears, the precursor of a major league team arriving in 1993.
