    The 1951 Shot Heard Round the World game
    The 1954 Willie Mays catch game in the World Series
    Don Larsen's 1956 perfect game

    What's the common thread?

    There's something very specific that ties these three very memorable games together, and it's not that they all happened in the 1950s in New York, or that we'll never see them again.

    That's right, Sal Maglie started both games for the Giants and the Don Larsen perfect game. Front row seat to baseball history; losing pitcher vs. Larsen and no-decisions vs. Brooklyn and the Indians.

    Len Barker. Dennis Martinez.

    Find the connection. And not the obvious one.
