In Game 4 of the 1947 World Series, the Yankees' Bill Bevens had a no-hitter going in the bottom of the 9th, but only held a 2-1 lead due to 10 walks. A pinch hitter won the game with a two-run double, breaking up Bevens' no-hitter. Despite wearing Dodger blue and having a sweet first name, this player was normally no "monster" at the plate with a .269 career average.
