TWENTY YEARS AGO — Pedro Delgado wins the 75th Tour de France, defeating runner-up Steven Rooks of The Netherlands by over seven minutes and becoming just the third Spanish cyclist to win the event.
TEN YEARS AGO — The Natchez 15-18 All-Star team is eliminated from the Dizzy Dean State Tournament after losing to Grenada 10-4 despite the effort of Tyler Walker, who goes 4-for-4 with two home runs.
FIVE YEARS AGO — Matt Barnes hits a two-run single and Ryan Ratcliff has a key two-run double as the Natchez 13-year-olds All-Stars advance to the finals of the state tournament with a 10-6 win over Hattiesburg.
