Description: Ticket stub from Game 3 of the 1966 World Series recently graded VG 3 by PSA. Baltimore won 1-0 to take a commanding 3-0 series lead over the Dodgers thanks to a Paul Blair HR and Wally Bunker's shutout pitching. There are only 10 ticket stubs graded higher by PSA. Slab is normal trading card size (approx. 5 1/4" by 3 1/4"). Combined shipping available. With the Orioles ahead in the series 2-0, the scene shifted to Baltimore's Memorial Stadium for Game 3, the first postseason game the city has hosted in the modern era of baseball. Wally Bunker of the Orioles faced Claude Osteen of the Dodgers.Bunker, plagued with injuries in the regular season, pitched the game of his life, scattering six hits in a complete game gem. Although Osteen allowed only three hits in seven strong innings, one of those hits was a home run from Paul Blair in the fifth, which turned out to be the game's only run. The Dodgers' defense woke up after Game 2's six-error embarrassment, and they turned several excellent plays, most notably first baseman Wes Parker's spectacular jump to snare Curt Blefary's sixth inning line drive and rob him of a base hit. Nonetheless, Bunker, without a shutout in the regular season, completed the Orioles' second consecutive shutout in this World Series by retiring Lou Johnson on a grounder to Aparicio. The 1–0 win gave the Orioles a commanding 3–0 series lead, and on the cusp of their first title.
