Taylor came up as one of several postwar Dodger pitchers who found brief success. He went 10-5 as a rookie in 1947 and started Game Four of the World Series. But a sore arm forced his removal after he faced just four batters. In that game, the Yankees' Bill Bevens took a no-hitter into the ninth inning. (JK)

FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY » September 25, 1950: Both Mel Parnell and rookie Harry Taylor of the Red Sox shut out Philadelphia, winning 8–0 and 3–0. Parnell throws a 3-hitter, and Taylor allows only two hits in the nightcap to win his first major-league game. » October 1, 1950: Ted Williams has four hits to lead the Red Sox to a 7–3, win over the Series-bound Yankees. Williams has three RBIs to finish with 97 in 89 games. With many regulars sitting out, rookie Ernie Nevel gives up four runs in three innings to take the loss. Lou Burdette gives a run in the 4th before Lopat and Eddie (not Whitey yet) Ford also appear. Buddy Rosar's two-run homer, off Ford, completes Boston's scoring. Harry Taylor goes the distance for his 2nd win.
