Check out this box score of this classic game between two Hall of Fame pitchers, especially the pitching logs. John Russell would no doubt have yanked both pitchers after the sixth, maybe the seventh, inning.
In addition to the two pitchers, five other Hall of Famers played in this game: Mays, McCovey,Cepeda, Aaron, and Matthews. Seven HOF'ers in one game. Remarkable!
Interesting to note that this 16 inning game took 4:10 to play. This is about the average time of a normal Yankees-Red Sox game today, or any game managed by Tony LaRussa.
