Deacon Phillippe of the Pittsburgh Pirates was the winning pitcher in Games 3 & 4 of the 1903 World Series. He was the starter and threw complete games in both. The games were played three days apart as there was a travel day after Game 3 and then a rainout. Game 3 was played October 3 and Game 4 was played October 6.

The 1958 Yankees lost the first two games to the Milwaukee Braves at County Stadium and came back to win the Series, 4 games to 3. The 1965 Los Angeles Dodgers lost the first two games to the Minnesota Twins at Metropolitan Stadium and came back to win the Series, 4 games to 3. The 1971 Pittsburgh Pirates lost the first two games to the Baltimore Orioles at Memorial Stadium and came back to win the Series, 4 games to 3. The 1978 Yankees lost the first two games to the Dodgers at Dodger Stadium and came back to win the Series, 4 games to 2.
