I would not have guessed that.

Pascual beat Boston, 10-1. The only run he allowed was a solo homer by Ted Williams, entering the last season of his career. (The '60 Senators were also entering the last season of their "career" in Washington.) Williams was one of only two batters in the Boston lineup whom Pascual did not whiff.

Wise move by Red Schoendienst. They ran away with the pennant in both years. Then came the seventies: Joe Hague at first base three years in a row. Ted Sizemore and Ray Busse at shortstop! Mr. Baseball, Bob Uecker was the opening day catcher two years in a row in the sixties.
