- Joe Torre was the only major leaguer to achieve both 2,000 hits as a player (1960-1977) and 2,000 wins as a manager (1977-2010).

- Dusty Baker was a part of the first "high five" on Oct 2, 1977, between him and LA Dodger teammate Glenn Burke. After Baker hit his 30th home run of the season, Burke met him at home plate with his hand held high over his head and Baker smacked it, later saying "It seemed like the thing to do.".
