September 30 1942 World Series Game 1 New York Yankees vs St Louis Cardinals

In Game 1, Red Ruffing had a no-hitter until Terry Moore singled for St. Louis with two out in the eighth inning. The Yankees scored the game’s first run in the fourth on Buddy Hassett’s two-out double with two on off of Mort Cooper. Next inning with runners on second and third, Joe DiMaggio’s fielder’s choice made it 2–0 Yankees. In the eighth with two on, Hassett’s single scored a run, then an error on Red Ruffing’s fly ball scored two more. Red Rolfe singled to lead off the ninth off of Max Lanier and scored on an error on Roy Cullenbine’s bunt attempt. Charlie Keller walked and an error on a pickoff attempt allowed Cullenbine to score. In the bottom of the ninth, with two on and two outs, Marty Marion put the Cardinals on the board with a two-run triple, then scored on Ken O’Dea’s single. After Jimmy Brown walked, Spud Chandler relieved Ruffing and allowed an RBI single to Terry Moore. Another single loaded the bases, bringing Stan Musial to the plate as the potential winning run, only to have Musial ground out to end the game as the Yankees took a 1–0 series lead with a 7–4 win.
