New York Yankee Don Larsen pitched the first and only perfect game in
World Series history on October 8, 1956. This pair of wire photos
captures the moment. The first image shows Dodger Gil Hodges
hopelessly swinging against one of Larsen's blinding pitches in the
eighth, with Berra stationed behind the plate. The second has a
beaming Larsen receiving congratulations from Yankee owners Webb &
Topping in the locker room. Both wire photos measure 8x10" and are EX.
