Mets Near No-Hitter at Forbes Field. Jackson Falls Short
Al Jackson of the Mets flirted with a no-hitter in Pittsburgh, coming within five outs of history before a fifth-inning error allowed a run. He settled for a two-hitter as New York won 1-0, ending his personal win drought and tying Carl Hubbell’s long scoreless stretch in the Pirates’ park. MLB results from the day include Braves, Giants, Astros, and Cubs victories across the National and American leagues.
