FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»October 5, 1907: In the last game of the year for the Athletics hurler Rube Vickers hurls a 5-inning 4–0 perfect game against Washington. He also wins the 15-inning first game of the twin bill, 4–2, with a spectacular 12-inning relief effort. The two wins are the only ones for Vickers this year. Starter Charlie Fritz falter after three innings and Rube Waddell tosses just one pitch, hit for a single. It is Waddell's last pitch for the A's as Mack will pedal Rube to the Browns over the winter.
