Unbelievable stat

just sitting here scanning some cards for ebay and happened to read the back of Stan Coveleskie's 1961 Fleer card....now in this day and age it's hard to have a pitcher go a game without a base on balls....believe it or not Stan pitched 7 1/2 innings without a ball being charged against him, that's right WITHOUT A BALL being charged against him.....and to top it off it was in the World Series against the Dodgers back in 1920. Now I don't know how they figured the 1/2 inning but needless to say this is unbelievable considering most pitchers can't get past the first batter anymore without throwing a ball.....WOW!! al.

I know there is only one true Stan the Man who resides in St. Louis but I think for one thread we can all agree that Mr. C is one Stan the Man!!
