He pitched a baseball game that was more than perfect, and yet he lost. Southpaw Harvey Haddix had logged an unspectacular career by the time he took the mound on May 26, 1959. Haddix faced the Milwaukee Braves and set down the first 36 batters in a row, or 12 innings worth, a perfect game three innings longer than the norm. But his Pittsburgh Pirates couldnt score, either, and Haddix lost in the 13th inning on a controversial play. The book not only recounts the game, but the official decisions that led to the games final box score in the annals of Major League history.
