Harvey Haddix, Pittsburgh Pirates, 5/26/1959

Milwaukee Braves 1, Pittsburgh Pirates 0

And of course this is the famous best game ever pitched, where Harvey Haddix took a perfect game into the 13th inning, only to have an error and a walk unravel things.

Here is a link to the game description on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_Haddix%27s_near-perfect_game
