FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»May 6, 1951: Pirate P Cliff Chambers throws a no-hitter at the Boston Braves in Boston, winning 3–0. He walks eight and throws one wild pitch but hangs on to record only the second no-hit game in Pirate history. Chambers, hitting .429, drives in Wally Westlake with the 3rd run in the 8th. The loser is George Estock, a Braves reliever making his only ML start and the loss is his only ML decision. For Chambers, it is his last win in a Pirates' uniform before he's traded to St. Louis.
»July 3, 1951: Giants rookie Willie Mays blasts a 13th inning solo homer off the Phillies Jocko Thompson to give New York a win. It is Willie's 2nd extra inning homer in two weeks: he'll hit another on July 7th, against the Braves George Estock.
