In each of these unforgettable World Series games something unusual or unexpected happened to turn the tide of victory -- Sandy Koufax fanned fifteen Yankees; a pebble made the difference between winning and losing for Walter Johnson; Country Slaughter made his famous dash for home on a routine single; Pepper Martin stole five bases against the top catcher in baseball and won a game single-handed; Cookie Lavagetto's two-out, ninth-inning hit broke Bill Bevens' heart. These crucial moments and the highspots of other memorable games are described so vividly that to read about them is to see baseball history being made. - First page.
