Gladiators 1,904 Posted August 24, 2017 I wonder what it's like in the locker room after a game like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,216 Posted August 24, 2017 Heard about the walkoff ending the no hitter, hadn't heard about the error ending the perfect game in the ninth. Suck it Dodgers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,296 Posted August 24, 2017 He should call Harvey Haddix, if he was still alive... http://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2015/05/26/126504134/harvey-haddix-threw-12-perfect-innings-and-lost Pittsburgh had plenty of chances, pounding out 12 hits in all, but they left eight men on base, unable to come through in a big spot. The game would eventually head to extras, and in the bottom of the 13th, someone finally blinked: Pirates third baseman Don Hoak booted a Felix Mantilla grounder, and just like that the perfect game was up in smoke. After a sacrifice bunt from Mathews (?!) and an intentional walk to Aaron, slugger Joe Adcock came to the plate -- and that's when Haddix made his only mistake of the night: Adcock hit what appeared to be a walk-off home run to deep right-center, but Aaron thought the ball simply bounced off the wall, so he cut across the diamond back to the dugout rather than rounding the bases. Since Adcock had passed him and Aaron had left the basepaths, both men were ruled out, and the game ended 1-0 on Mantilla's run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DankNuggs 305 Posted August 25, 2017 He signed a $48 million contract in his late 30's after having a fringe journeyman career up to that point. He is lucky as all hell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
