Yes Ted, I didn't miss that. I particularly noted the dimensions of Ebbets Field and the Yankee Stadium. Additionally, the Dodgers lineup was so strong that they batted Campanella next to last (right before the pitcher). So Larsen's feat is all the more noteworthy.

And Zimmer as a player.

I just took it out again. It seems to me that Larsen's crummy W/L record is probably due to the teams other than the Yanks, which he played on. He was a winner with the Yanks - heck, everyone was.
