- 1959 World Series Game 1, 11-0 (Dodgers won series 4-2)
- Tonight, 11-0
Meanwhile, The Good Phight is all about starter Cliff Lee, who could not do any wrong tonight:
Lee took the lead and did what aces do: pound the strike zone and squeeze all hope out of the opponent. Spotting his low-90s fastball, sweeping curve and deceptive change at will, he didn’t allow a Dodgers hitter to get as far as second base until Ronnie Belliard got there in the 7th. Lee finished that inning by striking out Manny Ramirez and Matt Kemp; an inning later, he notched strikeouts nine, on Loney looking, and ten, on a Russell Martin swing and miss. Lee added a single in the bottom of the eighth and scored on Victorino’s homer before giving way to Chad Durbin for the ninth. In his eight innings, Lee allowed three singles and no walks.
