You could also have done this by selecting outs from the event finder, and checking the bubble for DP or TP only, then game-ending. Cool idea.

Between '08 and 1920 you would be hard-pressed to find a more snakebit franchise than the Giants (Merkle in '08, this, then Heinie Zimmerman chasing home Eddie Collins with no one covering the plate in the 1917 Series clincher.) The Reds beat the Pirates in Game 5 of the NLCS with a 5-4-3 to preserve a 3-2 lead, but that series went six games. Again, great list.
