In Response To: Re: No Hitter Loss ()

Pete,

The Harvey Haddix story was so incredible. Below is a summary:

"Harvey Haddix had become the first pitcher in major league history to take a perfect game beyond nine innings and he did so for twelve stunning innings.In the 13th. Braves lead-off batter Felix Mantilla reached on a throwing error by Pirates 3B Don Hoak. Eddie Mathews sacrificed Mantilla to 2nd, Hank Aaron was walked intentionally, and Joe Adcock hit a 3-run HR. Adcock, however,passed Aaron on the bases and was only credited with a 1-run double."

I was listening to Vin Scully call a Dodger game that evening. He brought the whole event to life for me. Fond memory. grin
