September 5, 1969 was a good day for Steve Blass, both on the mound and at the plate. He pitched a four hitter, and Billy Williams got all four of those hits, so conceivably, if Billy Williams weren’t present, he would have pitched a no hitter. As for Blass’s success at the plate, he hit as many runs as he gave up and drove in enough runs to win the game himself.For more information visit www.49sfastball.com
