The San Francisco Giants acquire veteran shortstop Alvin Dark from the Milwaukee Braves and then sign Dark to a two-year contract as team manager. The Giants send infielder Andre Rodgers to the Braves as compensation for Dark.

Sometimes, history repeats itself. Former Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman became a prime example of that in the early hours on Tuesday morning (on the East Coast, at least). In the bottom of the 18th inning of Game 3 of the World Series, he belted a walk-off home run to dead center field to lift the Dodgers to a 6-5 win.

ATLANTA, Ga. (WALB) - On this day in 1995, the Atlanta Braves won the World Series for the third time, defeating the Cleveland Indians in Game 6. The Braves faced the Indians, who had put up a fight with wins in games 3 and 5. Atlanta needed one more win to secure the championship.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto could join Orel Hershiser in MLB history if he throws a third consecutive complete game for the Dodgers in Game 6.
