Here's a link to great story by Gerald Eskenazi from the NY Times. Harvey Haddix's place in baseball history has been overlooked by too many. It's almost unbelievable what he did 50 years ago today.

It's scary to think in a few years when someone posts "remember fifty years ago," I'll actually remember when it happened.

Great story. I was two weeks old when the game was played, but I don't seem to remember it.

That is also the date of the stupidest question ever asked by a reporter after the game.

"Would you say, Harvey, that this was the best game you ever pitched?"
