The Brooklyn Dodgers bounce back after Don Larsen’s perfect game to tie the World Series in Game 6 on Jackie Robinson’s walk off single

On October 9, 1956 –In a 10-inning scoreless pitching duel with both starters going all the way, Jackie Robinson’s walk-off single to left in the bottom of the 10th won the game for Clem Labine and kept the Dodgers’ championship hopes alive. Tough-luck loser Bob Turley gave up a 10th-inning walk to Jim Gilliam, a sacrifice bunt by Pee Wee Reese and intentional pass to Duke Snider before the decisive hit. Game 6 is one only the games in World Series history to be scoreless through nine innings, the others being Game 2 in 1913 at the time.
