Bob Prince was the MC. Each one of them signed this program. I found a photo of Clemente and Starr at the event. If you look at Starr’s left hand he is holding a copy of this program.

Whoops I stand corrected Garo is not in the NFL HOF. How embarrassing for both of us.
Very cool, Mike! Congrats

Here's a scorecard from Nolan Ryan's 1st complete game. In his very next start, he'd strike out 14 batters!

Keeping the Nolan Ryan theme, here's his first career start, with his first career decision.

Good one, Doug!
Note that Nolan wore uniform #34, not #30 in 1966.
When he pitched in 1968, as a rookie with the Mets, he started wearing #30.

Another great scorecard, Doug! Ryan got shelled in the first inning of the first game of a doubleheader, with the recorded attendance being less than 15,000. Again, you gotta wonder how many of these scorecards survived! The attendance for the card I posted for his first complete game was less than 10,000. I'm sure more are out there, but I certainly haven't seen any other examples of either!

One of the reasons I enjoy scored programs / scorecards is that each is a 1 of 1, to use the lingo of the modern collector. There are probably more of them out there somewhere, but each will use a different language to tell the same story.

Here is the same, yet different program that 5Tool posted previously from Nolan's first career win

Hi Doug,
Here is an extremely rare ticket stub that is a match to your scored program to Nolan's 1st ML start game in 1966.

Every scorecard deserves a matching ticket whenever possible!

That looks super nice, Doug...

But with those tightly cropped images, I am left wondering about the background of this program.

Default Stanly cup

My First Hockey post a 1926 Stanley Cup Final program from 1926. It was the last year a non NHL team played in the cup Finals. Babe Siebert and the Montreal Maroons won their first cup 3 games to 1. They beat the defending champion Victoria team

Well, it's a cardboard flat box used to ship, of course.

Default Koufax vs Gibson 1962

Chapter 1: The setup -
on May 25, 1961, 6,878 spectators attended a Thursday night matchup between Koufax and Gibson at St. Louis.

Tommy Davis, starting at third base and batting fifth, struck out his first two times at the plate. In “Stranger to the Game,” Gibson said, “I had been striking him out with sliders low and away, and I seemed to have the edge on him.”

Gibson was on a roll, having retired seven consecutive batters, when Davis led off in the seventh inning.

“I had noticed that, as I continued to pitch him outside, Davis was gradually sneaking up toward the plate,” Gibson said. “He was practically on top of the plate, and so, out of duty, I buzzed him inside with a fastball.

“I don’t know if he was setting me up, but he must have been looking for the fastball on his ribs, because he backed off a step, turned on that thing, and crushed it over the left field fence.”

In the book “Sixty Feet, Six Inches,” Gibson said, “I think he was just waiting for me to bring one inside, and I was still young and dumb enough to oblige him.”

Cardinals catcher Hal Smith told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, “The pitch Davis hit wasn’t even a strike.”

The home run into the bleacher seats in left-center broke a streak of 20 consecutive scoreless innings for Gibson and was all Koufax needed. He pitched a three-hit shutout for a 1-0 victory. It was the first time Koufax pitched a complete game against the Cardinals.

Chapter 2: The scored program below -
A year later, on June 18, 1962, Gibson and Koufax engaged in another duel before 33,477 attendees on a Monday night at Dodger Stadium.

Through eight innings, the Dodgers’ only hits were two singles by ex-Cardinal Wally Moon. Koufax limited the Cardinals to five singles.

The game was scoreless when Davis batted in the bottom of the ninth with one out and none on.

“Smart guy that I am, I remembered that Davis had beaten me the year before when I stopped pitching him outside and came in with a fastball,” Gibson said in “Stranger to the Game.”

“I thought, ‘Now, he remembers that I remember that pitch inside, and so he’s thinking that there’s no way I’m coming inside again in this situation. Just to cross him up, I’m going to do it again.’

“So, I threw the fastball inside again, and goddamn if he didn’t hit it out again to beat me. I learned right then that the dumbest thing you can do as a pitcher is try to be too smart.”

With the count 1-and-0, Davis told the Post-Dispatch, he was looking for a fastball. “Gibson had been getting me out on breaking stuff,” Davis said. “He was throwing the fastball when he got behind.”

Davis’ walkoff home run deep into the bullpen in left gave Koufax and the Dodgers another 1-0 victory. It was the first time Koufax pitched a complete game without allowing a walk.

“There are instances, as Tommy Davis taught me twice over, when a pitcher can think too much,” Gibson said in “Stranger to the Game.” “That was a hard lesson for me.”

In “Sixty Feet, Six Inches,” Gibson said, “It was a textbook case of overthinking. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Worse yet, I went against my better judgment. When I started winning big was when I stopped doing stuff like that.”

Doug, you have this one?
Rick
