May 5th, 2022 features a 10-game MLB slate headlined by Nolan Arenado‘s Cardinals visiting Brandon Crawford and the Giants, as well as the Marlins visiting Manny Machado‘s Padres and Taijuan Walker starting for the Mets against Aaron Nola and the Phillies. The NBA sees a break in Semifinals action as each series transitions to game 3, and many NFL teams are making their final free agent signings after the draft.
See what happened in sports on May 5th last year, headlined by John Means‘ no-hitter that was a dropped third strike away from a perfect game and an epic battle between young stars Ja Morant and Anthony Edwards, as well as what happened in sports on May 5th, 2020 ft. the Jets signing 37-year-old veteran Frank Gore for what ended up being his final season and Quincy Enunwa‘s 2020 season ending before it started after being placed on the PUP list which ultimately led to the end of his career.

SIGNIFICANT HISTORY
2018: Cleveland Cavaliers SF LeBron James drained his 5th career postseason GW buzzer-beater (the most of all-time) to defeat the Toronto Raptors in Game 3, taking a commanding 3-0 series lead, cementing his nickname of “LeBronto” due to his constant playoff victories over Toronto
2006: Washington Wizards PG Gilbert Arenas missed both FTA after LeBron James got in his head as DC was up by 1 with 0:15 remaining in OT during Game 6 of a 3-2 1st Round series vs. Cleveland. Damon Jones hit the GW-3PM with 5 seconds left to clinch the series for LeBron’s 1st playoff series victory
2004: Houston Astros SP Roger Clemens moved ahead of Steve Carlton for 2nd place on the all-time strikeouts list with his 4,137th career SO where he remains today at 4,672
2004: New York Mets C Mike Piazza hit his 352nd career HR, passing Carlton Fisk for most all-time by a Catcher. Piazza finished with 399 while playing Catcher which remains the most ever
1998: Atlanta Hawks C Dikembe Mutumbo became the 1st 3x Defensive Player of the Year in NBA history. Mutumbo finished with 4 career DPOYs which is tied with Ben Wallace for the most ever
1981: Boston Celtics PF Larry Bird pulled off an incredible play in Game 1 of the NBA Finals where he grabbed his own rebound with his right hand, switched the ball to his left, then converted a layup as his momentum pulled him out of bounds
1969: Hall of Famers HC/C Bill Russell and SG Sam Jones both played their very last game with the Boston Celtics, a Game 7 NBA Finals victory over the Los Angeles Lakers for their record 11th (Russell) & 10th (Jones) Championships. Losing PG Jerry West recorded the 1st 40+pt triple double in NBA Finals history (2015 LeBron James and 2020 Jimmy Butler have since joined him)
1904: Boston Pilgrims SP Cy Young pitched the very 1st perfect game in baseball’s modern era (since the mound was moved from 45 ft to current distance of 60.5 ft), defeating the Philadelphia Athletics 3-0
