Chris Krug from the Chronology
Sep 9, 1965 - In LA a duel between Dodger Sandy Koufax and Bob Hendley of the Cubs is perfect until Dodger LF Lou Johnson walks in the 5th. Following a sacrifice Johnson steals 3B and scores on C Chris Krug's wild throw. Johnson later gets the game's only hit a 7th-inning single. Koufax's 4th no-hitter in 4 years is a perfect game. One hit by 2 clubs in a completed 9-inning game is also a ML record as is the one runner left on base. The 2 base runners in a game is a ML record. For Chicago pitchers it is the 2nd one-hitter they've thrown against LA this year and lost. Ellsworth lost on May 15 1965.
Aug 8, 1965 - In New York the Cubs score 6 runs in the 9th inning to whip the Mets 14-10. Chris Krug is not much help in the 9th as the Cubbie strikes out twice. It's the first time since 1922 a Cub has K'ed twice in one inning.
