=Events

January 7 – Pitchers Tom Seaver and Rollie Fingers are elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Seaver finishes with a record 98.8% of the votes cast.

January 27 – The Oakland Athletics sign free agent relief pitcher Goose Gossage.
January 31 – The Pittsburgh Pirates sign outfielder Barry Bonds to a one-year contract worth $4.7 million, the largest-ever one-year deal.

February 20 – The Simpsons episode, Homer at the Bat airs featuring guest appearances by Roger Clemens, Wade Boggs, Ken Griffey Jr., Steve Sax, Ozzie Smith, José Canseco, Don Mattingly, Darryl Strawberry and Mike Scioscia.
February 27 – One hundred forty-nine players file for salary arbitration. Of the 21 who have a hearing, the players win ten and lose eleven. New York Mets pitcher David Cone receives a record $4.25 million award.
= March
=March 2 – Chicago Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg becomes the highest-paid player in major league history when he agrees to a four-year contract extension worth $28.4 million.
March 15 – Dwight Evans is released by the Baltimore Orioles, ending his 20-year career.
March 17:
The Minnesota Twins trade highly regarded prospect pitcher Denny Neagle to the Pittsburgh Pirates for pitcher John Smiley.

March 26 – The Milwaukee Brewers trade Gary Sheffield to the San Diego Padres in exchange for pitcher Ricky Bones, infielder John Valentin and minor league prospect Matt Mieske
March 30 – In one of the biggest cross-town trades in Chicago baseball history, the Chicago Cubs trade George Bell to the Chicago White Sox, while the Sox send Sammy Sosa to the Cubs.
= April
=April 1 – Mike Heath is released by the Atlanta Braves.
April 2 – In what would turn out to be a one sided trade, the Philadelphia Phillies acquire Curt Schilling from the Houston Astros for relief pitcher Jason Grimsley. Schilling plays a role in the Phillies World Series run, whereas Grimsley never appears in a single game for the Astros.
April 5 – Less than a month after he is released by the Kansas City Royals, Kevin Seitzer signs a free agent contract with the Milwaukee Brewers.
April 6:
A crowd of 44,568 sees the Baltimore Orioles defeat the Cleveland Indians 2–0 in the first game at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Rick Sutcliffe hurls the shutout for Baltimore.
The Texas Rangers overcome an 8–3 deficit to defeat the Seattle Mariners 12–10. The Rangers score nine runs in the eighth inning as a stunned Kingdome crowd watched on.
April 10 – Dave Eiland makes it into the record books in an unusual way. He hits a home run in his first at bat, thus becoming the first pitcher who gave up a home run to the first batter he ever faced (Paul Molitor) and hit a home run in his very own first plate appearance. Eiland gave up the homer to Molitor as a member of the New York Yankees in 1988.
= May
=May 5 – The Pittsburgh Pirates release Kirk Gibson.
May 8 – Butch Henry, a pitcher for the Houston Astros, hits an inside the park home run for his first career hit. He connects off Pirates pitcher Doug Drabek and Pirates outfielder Barry Bonds fails to field the ball. It would be the only home run of Henry's career.
May 9 – At Busch Stadium, the St. Louis Cardinals come back from deficits of 9-0 and 11–3 to win 12–11 over the Atlanta Braves.
May 21 – The California Angels team bus is involved in a crash on the New Jersey Turnpike. Eleven people are injured, the most serious being Buck Rodgers, the Angels manager. He would miss the next 90 games of the season.
May 22 – The Montreal Expos fire manager Tom Runnels and name Felipe Alou as the team's new manager.
May 27 – The Atlanta Braves, at the time in last place, defeat the Philadelphia Phillies 9–3. The upset win sparks the Braves, who go on a 78–37 run and win the NL West.
May 30 – Scott Sanderson of the New York Yankees gets the W in the Yankees 8–1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. The victory allows Sanderson to become the ninth pitcher to have defeated all (at the time) 26 teams in the major leagues. Nolan Ryan, Tommy John, Don Sutton, Mike Torrez, Rick Wise, Gaylord Perry, Doyle Alexander, and Goose Gossage were the others to accomplish the feat.
= June
=June 1 – The MLB draft is held. Phil Nevin, Paul Shuey, B.J. Wallace, Jeffrey Hammonds, and Chad Mottola all go off the board before the New York Yankees select shortstop Derek Jeter.
June 3 – The Detroit Tigers sell the contracts of pitcher Fernando Valenzuela and infielder Rick Renteria to Jalisco of the Mexican League.
June 5 – Eddie Murray of the New York Mets drives in two runs in a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. This allows Murray to tie Mickey Mantle as the all-time RBI leader among switch hitters. Murray would break the record the following day.
June 8 – Steve Howe of the New York Yankees is banned from baseball for life by Commissioner Fay Vincent. Howe was arrested earlier in the year for striking a light pole with his vehicle and leaving the scene of an accident. The trial was postponed to May, and Howe took a plea deal on a charge of attempted drug possession.
June 10 – Mark McGwire of the Oakland Athletics hits the 200th home run of his career, connecting off Chris Bosio of the Milwaukee Brewers.
June 11 – The Pittsburgh Pirates release pitcher Dennis Lamp.
June 16 – The California Angels retire Nolan Ryan's number in a pregame ceremony.
June 20 – Kelly Saunders fills in for Rex Barney, the Public Address announcer for the Baltimore Orioles. This makes Saunders the second woman to fill that role, joining Joy Hawkins McCabe, who filled in for one game for the Washington Senators in 1966.
= July
=July 6–8 – The Montreal Expos and Los Angeles Dodgers play a series of three doubleheaders at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers sweep the first doubleheader, the Expos sweep the second, and the two teams split the third. The doubleheaders are part of a series that had been postponed because of the Los Angeles Riots.
July 7 – Andy Van Slyke of the Pittsburgh Pirates becomes the first outfielder in nearly 18 years to record an unassisted double play, in the Pirates' 5–3 win over the Houston Astros. Van Slyke races in from center field to catch a fly ball, then continues in to double up Ken Caminiti, who was running from second base on the play.
July 12 – Jeff Blauser of the Atlanta Braves hits three home runs in the Braves 7–3 win over the Chicago Cubs. Blauser joins Barry Larkin, Ernie Banks and Freddie Patek as the only shortstops in MLB history to hit three home runs in one game.
July 14 – The American League pounds out a record 19 hits in defeating the National League by a score of 13–6 in the All-Star Game. It is the AL's fifth straight win. Seattle Mariners outfielder Ken Griffey Jr., who hit a single, a double and a home run, is named the MVP, 12 years after his father Ken Sr. won the same honor.
July 15 – One day after signing free agent catcher Jerry Willard, who'd been released by the Atlanta Braves, the Montreal Expos release catcher Rick Cerone.
July 17 – Three years removed from hitting 30 home runs for the Boston Red Sox, Nick Esasky is released by the Atlanta Braves, Esasky was suffering from vertigo, which essentially ended his career.
July 24 – Scott Erickson throws the Minnesota Twins' only complete-game one-hitter. Former Twin Tom Brunansky has the only hit for the Boston Red Sox.
July 26 – In a 6–2 win over the Baltimore Orioles, Nolan Ryan of the Texas Rangers gets his 319th win all-time, passing Phil Niekro to move into 12th on the all-time list. In the same game, Ryan recorded his 100th strike out of the season, setting a new MLB record of 23 straight seasons with 100 or more strike outs.
July 30 – Juan Samuel's tenure with the Los Angeles Dodgers comes to an end. Samuel, who'd been acquired as part of a much ballyhooed trade, fails to live up to expectations.
= August
=August 1 – As was the case last season, Deion Sanders leaves the Atlanta Braves to report for Atlanta Falcons training camp. However, he was able to rework his NFL contract and reported back to the Braves for the postseason.
August 8 - The Milwaukee Brewers officially retire the number 34 in honor of pitcher Rollie Fingers.
August 17 – At Dodger Stadium, Kevin Gross of the Los Angeles Dodgers no-hits the San Francisco Giants 2–0.
August 28 – The Milwaukee Brewers lash 31 hits in a 22-2 drubbing of the Toronto Blue Jays, setting a record for the most hits by a team in a single nine-inning game. Darryl Hamilton leads the way for the Brewers, going 4-for-7 with 5 RBI.
August 31 – The Oakland Athletics trade José Canseco to the Texas Rangers in the middle of a game and while Canseco was in the on-deck circle, for Rubén Sierra, Jeff Russell and Bobby Witt.
= September
=September 7 – After receiving an 18–9 no-confidence vote from the owners, Commissioner Fay Vincent resigns under pressure. Vincent is soon replaced by Milwaukee Brewers president Bud Selig on what is meant to be an interim basis. The commissioner's power transfers to baseball's Executive Council, made up of the two league presidents and eight owners, with Selig as the chair. Besides, Jerry Reinsdorf, Chicago White Sox chairman explains: "When we go to war with the union, I want [the commissioner] to have an obligation only to the owners."
September 9 – Robin Yount becomes the 17th big leaguer to reach 3,000 hits in the Milwaukee Brewers' 5–4 loss to the Cleveland Indians. Yount singles to right center off Cleveland's José Mesa in the seventh inning.
September 20 – Mickey Morandini of the Philadelphia Phillies completes the first National League unassisted triple play in 65 years. It is the ninth in Major League history, but only the second to be pulled off by a second baseman. The Pittsburgh Pirates win the game, however, 3–2.
September 23 – Bip Roberts of the Cincinnati Reds hits safely in his tenth consecutive at-bat. He ends his streak later in the game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
September 27 – The Pittsburgh Pirates seal their third consecutive National League East championship with a 4–2 victory over the New York Mets. It is the Pirates' final postseason berth before their 2013 season.
September 28 – The idle Oakland Athletics clinch their fourth American League West crown in five years when the second-place Minnesota Twins fall to the Chicago White Sox 9–4.
September 29 – The Atlanta Braves wrap up the National League West with a 6–0 shutout of the San Francisco Giants.
September 30 – George Brett of the Kansas City Royals collects his 3,000th hit, an infield single off Tim Fortugno in the seventh inning of a 4–0 Royals victory over the California Angels.
= October
=October 3 – The Toronto Blue Jays clinch their second straight American League East title with a narrow 3–2 win over the Detroit Tigers.
October 11 - Two-sport Deion Sanders plays for the Atlanta Falcons in their game with the Miami Dolphins and flies immediately afterwards to Pittsburgh to play in the Atlanta Braves' playoff Game 5 against the Pittsburgh Pirates in an attempt to become the first professional athlete to play in games for two separate sports in the same day. However, Sanders does not play in the game for the Braves.
October 14 - The Atlanta Braves defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 in Game 7 of the 1992 National League Championship Series to clinch their second straight National League pennant. After the game, the Braves' Deion Sanders throws a bucket of ice on CBS baseball analyst Tim McCarver as he is conducting postgame interviews in the Braves' locker room allegedly over comments made by McCarver throughout the series over Sanders' commitment to the Braves alongside his commitment to the NFL's Atlanta Falcons.
October 23 – The expansion Florida Marlins hire Rene Lachemann as the team's first manager.
October 24 – The Toronto Blue Jays clinch their first World Series championship with a 4–3 win over the Atlanta Braves in Game 6. Dave Winfield's 2–out, 2–run double in the top of the 11th gives Toronto a 4–2 lead. The Braves score one run in the bottom half of the inning and have the tying run on the 3rd when the final out is made. Jimmy Key wins the game in relief, and Candy Maldonado homers for Toronto. Blue Jays catcher Pat Borders, with a .450 batting average, is named the Series MVP. The Toronto Blue Jays finish the season without being swept in any series. It is the first team from outside the United States to win the World Series.
October 27 – The expansion Colorado Rockies hire Don Baylor as the team's first manager.
= November
=November 10 – The National League fails to approve the sale of the San Francisco Giants to Vince Naimoli, blocking a move to St. Petersburg, Florida. The 9–4 vote falls short of the 10 required for approval.
November 12 – Arbitrator George Nicolau overturns the lifetime ban of New York Yankees pitcher Steve Howe for substance abuse, considering it too severe. After that, Howe is re-signed by the team.
November 16 – The Colorado Rockies sign free agent first baseman Andrés Galarraga, who rejoins Don Baylor, his hitting coach with the St. Louis Cardinals. Galarraga is coming off his second injury-plagued year, having missed 44 days of the season after being hit on the wrist by a Wally Whitehurst pitch in the third game of the season.
November 17 – Major League Baseball holds an expansion draft to stock the rosters of the National League's two new teams, the Florida Marlins and Colorado Rockies. A total of 72 players are chosen. The best picks for Florida are Trevor Hoffman, eventually packaged for Gary Sheffield; Jeff Conine, and Cris Carpenter, later dealt to the Texas Rangers for Robb Nen. For Colorado, their best picks are Eric Young, Joe Girardi, Vinny Castilla, Armando Reynoso, Andy Ashby, Brad Ausmus, Charlie Hayes and Doug Bochtler. The next season, Ashby, Ausmus and Bochtler will go to the San Diego Padres in an ill-fated deal for pricey veteran pitchers Bruce Hurst and Greg Harris.
November 22 – Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Pat Listach is named American League Rookie of the Year. Listach, who was recalled on April 7 to replace the injured Bill Spiers, hit a .290 average and also became the first Brewers player to steal 50 bases in a season.
November 29 – Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott is quoted in The New York Times as saying that Adolf Hitler was initially good for Germany, that her references to "niggers" were in jest, and she couldn't understand why the word "Jap" was offensive. MLB appoints a four-man committee to investigate the controversial Schott.
= December
=December 1 – During the Major League Baseball Players Association annual executive board meeting, its executive director Donald Fehr tells the membership that the union needs "to save the owners from themselves."
December 7 – At the winter meetings in Louisville, the MLB owners vote 15–13 to reopen the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) one year early, as they have the right to do. Two days later, MLBPA director Donald Fehr calls a 1993 lockout a "foregone conclusion".
