Ed Walsh


On this date in 1911, Ed Walsh of the White Sox pitches a 5-0 no-hitter against the Red Sox.

"He threw a spitball. I think the ball disintegrated on the way to the plate, and the catcher put it back together again. I swear when it went past the plate, it was just the spit went by." - Sam Crawford
