Don Larsen's Perfect Game, Dodgers at Yankees, 1956 World Series Game 5

from Classic Baseball Radio · host Ewan Spence

It’s Game 5 of the 1956 World Series. Pitching for the Yankees is Don Larsen. Following four walks and four unearned runs given up in Game 2 before the end of the second inning, there was little indication that Larsen was about to throw the only perfect game in World Series history.  Bob Wolff and Bob Neal call the game for MBS Radio, and as is tradition, never mention the no-hitter is on, let alone a perfect game… although Wolff might drop a few hints. See if you can spot them. The box score can be found here. This game was played on October 8th, 1956.
