9/27/1953: Duane Pilette Vs. Billy Pierce

Since people are speaking of Duane Pillette on this page;;;;;;;
Duane Pillette pitched the last game in St. Louis Browns' history.
On Sept. 27, 1953 in St. Louis Pillette and the White Sox' star lefty Billy Pierce both had shutouts through nine innings. The game was decided in the top of the 12th on a two-run double by Minnie Minoso with each hurler going the distance. That was the end of the American League franchise in St.Louis as the team soon announced that they would move to become the Baltimore Orioles for the 1954 season.
