World Series perfect game

New York Yankee pitcher Don Larsen pitched the first and only perfect game in a World Series on October 8, 1956. Surprised to be the starting pitcher in game 5 of the World Series, Larson needed just 97 pitches to complete a no-hitter against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Dodger pinch-hitter Dale Mitchell was caught looking on the final pitch.
