October 8 1956 was the date when World Series history was made. The two pivotal players involved were New York Yankees teammates Don Larsen and Yogi Berra. It was Game 5 of the 56 World Series and the Yankees were hosting the Brooklyn Dodgers at Yankee Stadium. The game ended 2-0 in favor of the host team but the box score reflected something magical: a perfect Game! No hits no runs no walks and no hits batsmen for the Dodgers. Larsen struck out seven Dodgers that day and threw a perfect game with Berra catching behind the plate the first and only perfect game ever pitched in World Series history! This lot includes an official American League (Brown) baseball signed by both players in blue ink with Berra across the sweet spot and inscribed by Larsen with the following text: Yogi caught my perfect game vs. Brooklyn Dodgers Game 5 1956 World Series. Don Larsen. Signatures both rate 9/10.
