I kept score of this game from my home in Connecticut, listening to the Orioles radio broadcast on WBAL. The page of the Orioles batters is beautiful, 3 batters 3 outs in each inning. I think it was just as good as any no-hitter.

I was 20 years old at the time and serving in Spain with the U.S. Air Force and a big Indians fan. Thanks for the post.

I was 12 years old and attended the game with my stepdad sitting in the upperdeck down the 3rd baseline at the old (and nearly empty) Cleveland Municipal Stadium. Dick Donovan pitched a two hit shutout while facing the minimum of 27 batters. Whitey Herzog got two singles being doubled up on one and thrown out attempting to steal on the other. Willie Tasby broke up the scoreless game with a homer over the centerfield fence in the bottom of the 8th. Woody Held singled home an insurance run later in the the same inning. This remains the best pitched game I've ever witnessed personally in my 55+ years of following the Indians. That includes the back to back one hitters I saw Sam McDowell pitch in 1967.
