Score is tied 1-1 in 8th inning with 38-year-old Hall-of-Famer Tom Seaver pitching. Later, the score is tied 3-3 in extra innings, and a 3-run homer is hit by Brewers in overtime, but White Sox tie the score at 6-6. In the bottom of the 25th inning, DH Harold Baines homers to center field to win the game 7-6 for White Sox in 25 innings.
-Seaver gets credit with 2 wins that game, and the whole game stretches for part of 2 days.
May 26, 1959, Braves (Milwaukee) at Pirates-
Pirates pitcher Harvey Haddix starts vs. best team in baseball in '59 (Braves), and pitches a perfect game for 12innings. He lost the perfecto in the 13th on an apparent homer, but the runner passed the runner in front of him, but got credited for a double. He ended up losing the complete game.
-Haddix's opposing pitcher, Braves ace Lew Burdette, pitched a 12-hit shutout and won the game.
1956 World Series Game 5, Dodgers (Brooklyn) at Yankees-
Little-known Yankees pitcher Don Larsen pitches a perfect game vs. one of the most popular and talented teams (Dodgers) in US sports history. For the early part of the game, ace Whitey Ford was warming up in the bullpen and Hall-of-Famer Mickey Mantle saved the perfecto with a good catch.
-Larsen could've lost his no-no because Hall-of-Fame slugger Duke Snider almost hit a home run, but it barely stayed foul.
