Sandy Koufax of the Los Angeles Dodgers becomes the first pitcher to throw four No-Hitters, during his career. Koufax had thrown Ho Hitters in 1962, 1963, and 1964, this time he tops himself by pitching a Perfect Game, with 14 strikeouts. Bob Hendley of the Chicago Cubs nearly matches Koufax, allowing one hit and taking the loss as the Dodgers win 1-0 at Dodger Stadium.
