On this date: Remembering Don Larsen's perfect game
Yogi Berra and Don Larsen celebrated 60 years ago Saturday. BettmannSaturday marks the 60th anniversary of New York Yankees starter Don Larsen’s perfect game against the Brooklyn Dodgers in Game 5 of the World Series.
It was a highly unexpected pitching performance, given that Larsen allowed four runs and got only five outs in Game 2 of the Series.
But there were hints of potential greatness in September, a month in which Larsen allowed two runs and 15 hits in 34 2/3 innings, after changing his pitching motion to a no-windup delivery.
What should we remember of that game?
