Did you know that Darold Knowles of the Oakland Athletics is the only pitcher to appear in all seven games of a seven game World Series (1973 World Series)? Too easy?

During the 1963 World Series, Sandy Koufax struck out more hitters in four games than Christy Mathewson set in the five game record and Chief Bender set in the six game record.
Bill Donovan (1907 World Series) and Bruce Kison (1971 World Series) were the only two pitchers to hit three batsmen during a series of any length. Were?
