As far as the World Series goes, that was Christy Mathewson of the New York Giants in 1905. The Giants won the Series, 4 games to 1, over the Philadelphia Athletics. Not only did Mathewson win three games, he pitched three shutouts. He is the only pitcher in World Series history to throw three shutouts in one Series.
