On This Day in Baseball

Red SoxMy baseball calendar informs me that on this day in 1988, the Red Sox traded two of their minor leaguers for pitcher Mike Boddicker. Boddicker was no slouch, going 7-3, 15-11 and 17-8 in his two and one half seasons with the Sox. The players they gave up? Three time All-Star utility outfielder Brady Anderson and four time All-Star pitcher Curt Schilling.

I believe also that Curt Schilling is the active major leaguer with the most at bats without getting a home run.
