Getting to third base in one swing...


We can write dates in numerical shorthand; for example, January 1st, 1955 can be written as 01-01-55.  November 24th, 2323 can be written as 11-24-23.

Knowing this rule, then, what mathematical significance do the following dates have in common?

March 4th, 2005
June 8th, 2010
May 12th, 1613
September 12th, 1915
August 15th, 1817
December 16th, 2320
July 24th, 1725
October 24th, 1926


Hint: The significance is geometry-related...and here is the man responsible!
