Today's Moment to Remember
The first Major League Baseball All-Star Game 
OTD, July 6, in 1933, the first MLB All-Star Game was played in Comiskey Park, Chicago, IL.  Of course, the first MLB All-Star Game home run was hit by ... ... ...

Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees ( see the video above for footage of his historic hit and 'trot' around the bases ;)
Slice of Americana
Who's on First?

​On this date (OTD), July 6, in 1945, Abbott and Costello perform what most consider their best version of their 'Who's on First?' comedy routine.  It was performed in a movie called the 'Naughty Nineties.'  In 1999, Time magazine called 'Who's on First?' the Best Comedy Sketch of the 20th Century.
