Max Performance !

The 1952 Boston Braves got the best of the 1969 Montreal Expos by winning 2 out of three. In the first one the Expos bested the Braves in a 14 innings marathon 4-3. that was all the Expos could do against the Braves. The Braves won the next one 8-4 having a feast with Montreal relievers & then shut them down 6-1 in the last game of the series. The Braves pitcher (Max Surkont) had a no-hitter going until the 6th inning when the hapless Expos finally got a hit. The Expos broke the spell Surkont had with a homerun for their lone run in the 9th. The result was Boston Braves won the series 2-1 --submitted by Orlando Leon--
