On May 6, 1998, a rookie pitcher from Texas took the mound for the Cubs against a stacked Houston Astros lineup. That pitcher was 20-year-old Kerry Wood. Wood dominated Astros hitters that day, marking his place in baseball history when he struck out 20 batters in nine innings to tie the major league record. Just four pitchers in MLB history have accomplished the feat.
