標題[情報] Don Larsen過世
時間Thu Jan 2 11:53:09 2020
Don Larsen, who pitched the only perfect game in World Series history, died
Wednesday at the age of 90, his representative, Andrew Levy, tweeted
Wednesday night.
Levy said the former pitcher died of esophageal cancer in Hayden, Idaho.
Larsen was a journeyman pitcher, playing for seven teams over a 14-year
career while posting a lifetime 81-91 record, but on Oct. 8, 1956, while with
the New York Yankees, he was as good as any pitcher has ever been.
In Game 5 of the World Series, Larsen pitched to 27 Brooklyn Dodgers batters,
retiring pinch hitter Dale Mitchell on a called third strike and then bracing
for catcher Yogi Berra's leap into his arms. The Yankees went on to win that
series in seven games.
Larsen was born on Aug. 7, 1929, and grew up in San Diego. He made his major
league debut with the St. Louis Browns in 1953. He later joined the Yankees
in 1955 as part of a 17-player trade.
Larsen had his best years with the Yankees, including a career-best 11
victories in 1956. But no one would have predicted his remarkable performance
in the World Series that year. He had lost Game 2 of that series, lasting
only 1⅔ innings in a 13-8 loss, but his unprecedented feat in Game 5 earned
him the World Series MVP honor.
Larsen continued playing until 1967 but never again had that kind of success.
Larsen was connected to the two other perfect games in Yankees history,
though.
He and David Wells, who threw a perfect game at Yankee Stadium in 1998, both
attended Point Loma High School in San Diego.
And Larsen was in attendance when David Cone threw a perfect game against the
Montreal Expos in 1999. Larsen was there as a special guest on Yogi Berra
Day, throwing a ceremonial pitch to his former catcher.
史上唯一一個在世界大賽投出完全比賽的投手Don Larsen，在星期三因食道癌過世，享高
壽90
生涯只有81-91，3.78，生涯年就是1956，不過也只有11-5，3.26
那年世界大賽先發兩場，前一場甚至1.2局掉四分被打爆，結果第二場創造歷史
