Box Score of the Week

The 1962 regular season finale featuring the Kansas City Athletics and the Detroit Tigers.

---------------------------------

In 1962, Athletics pitcher Bill Fischer set a record (one which still stands today) by pitching 84-1/3 consecutive innings without issuing a walk. That streak came to an end in this game when he walked a batter with one out in the 5th inning.
