On this day, 1973, one of the oddest trades in sports history was executed by Yankees pitchers Mike Kekich and Fritz Peterson. The teammates, for reasons unbeknownst to this blogger, swapped wives, families, and homes. Each divorced his wife, and married the other's, moving into the other player's house, and raising the other man's kids. I am not sure if there was a pet to be named later. The Yankee GM wryly observed following the trade, "We may have to call off Family Day." For the full story, click here.
