Rocky Marciano Retires Unbeaten at 49 0
In 1956 heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano retires with a 49 0 record after six title defenses and 43 knockouts. The 1968 note recalls Jimmy Ellis winning the heavyweight title in Oakland in an eight man elimination to fill Muhammad Ali's vacated throne. 1994 Scott Erickson throws Minnesota’s first no hit bid in 27 years as the Twins beat Milwaukee 6 0. 2001 Jamal Mashburn posts perfect 25 free throws in a playoff sweep over Miami. 2002 Derek Lowe no hits Tampa Bay as Brent Abernathy’s lone baserunner spoils a perfect game bid in Boston’s 10 0 win.
