June 27, 1962 – Notorious head-hunter Don Drysdale, who hit 20 batters in 1961, had never been hit by a pitch. Bob Shaw filled that void, plunking him in a game at Dodger Stadium in the fifth inning. For good measure, relief pitcher Hank Fischer also drilled Drysdale in the seventh inning. Drysdale had the last laugh, winning the game, 6-2.
