October 11th…Big Day For Big Ed
Posted by Steve Lombardi on October 11, 2008
Using Play Index to find great starts for pitchers in the post-season, I noticed that the best game pitched, on this date (October 11th), probably belongs to Big Ed Walsh - with the game being Game 3 of the 1906 World Series between the White Sox and the Cubs. (His effort was 3 baserunners over a perfect game.)
The attendance that day? According to the boxscore, it was 13,667. Then again, the ballpark only held 16,000.
