Don Larsen in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Don Larsen pitched the only perfect game in a World Series. This event happened in the 5th game of the 1956 World Series at the old Yankee Stadium when the Yankees beat the Dodgers and won the World Series after two more games. This perfect game was also the only perfect game to be pitched in the MLB playoffs. It used to be the only no hitter in the playoffs until Roy Halliday pitched a no hitter in game one of the NLDS against the Cincinnati Reds. This was Roy Halliday's excellent first appearance in the MLB playoffs.
