Thank you very much Mr. Micawber, your answer is very helpful. As my english is not that good, especially in grammar. I have further question to ask you for further clarification: First, why you used past tense instead of present perfect and Second, could you give the reason why you put all the commas. Thanks.

Past tense because a past date is mentioned; present perfect cannot be used with a specific past time reference.
The two commas (two is hardly 'all') mark off the phrase and allow the reader to breathe.
