	Ernie Shore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Shore's best year with the Red Sox was 1915, when he won 18, lost 8, and compiled a 1.64 earned run average.
		Shore then proceeded to retire the remaining 26 Senators for a no-hitter, a 4-0 Red Sox win, and a game sometimes (erroneously) called a "perfect game in relief".
		Shore was Sheriff of Forsyth County, North Carolina for many years, and led the 1950s effort to build a minor league baseball park in Winston-Salem, a park that was ultimately named for him and still serves as the home field of the Winston-Salem Warthogs of the Carolina League.

		Shore was a winner in his four years with the Red Sox, including a 19-8 (1.64) 1915 mark, but was ineffective after spending 1918 in WWI military service.
		Shore's save goes unnoticed for 50 years until ICI research uncovers his efforts.
		The runner Ray Morgan is then caught stealing, and Shore retires all 26 men he faces in a 4—0 win, getting credit in the books for a perfect game.

		Shore requested that he be paired with someone other than Ruth, citing the Babe's sanitary habits, or lack thereof.
		To wit: Ruth would often use Shore's toothbrush instead of his own, and it was rumored that Ruth had a bad habit of not flushing the toilet.
		Ruth and Shore were both dominant pitchers during their careers, but the similarities ended there.

	Ernie Shore Field: Where History Lives on in Winston-Salem
		Yet during the baseball season, the long-time manager and pitching coach is as likely to be found at Ernie Shore Field, which for much of his life served as his “home away from home.” Now, after a half-century in the game, the baseball lifer keeps gravitating to the place where everybody knows his name.
		Shore replaced the Babe, and after the runner was thrown out at second base on an attempted steal, the righthander tossed a perfect game by retiring the next 26 batters he faced.
		Ernie Shore Field also has picnic facilities on the concourse down both lines, including a two-tiered deck built in 2003 for large private parties in right field that serves as the team’s answer to luxury suites.

	Ernie Shore - BR Bullpen
		Shore is remembered only for that one game, but he was a factor for several years with the Boston Red Sox.
		Shore had come up with the New York Giants in 1912, but then was with the top minor league team the Baltimore Orioles with Babe Ruth, was with him in Boston, and then closed out his career with Ruth in New York.
		Shore had a better ERA than Ruth in 1914 and 1915, but not in 1916 or 1917.

		Shore came on in relief of starting pitcher Babe Ruth after Ruth was ejected for arguing balls and strikes after walking the first batter of the game.
		Shore came into the game in relief without warming up, picked off the runner on base and then went on to retire the next 26 Washington batters he faced.
		A no-hitter must be a complete game and since Shore did not start the game, he was not eligible to complete the game and so the feat will forever be known as a combined no-hitter.

	Baseball Toaster : Mike's Baseball Rants : Ruth or Aaron? Epilogue I
		Shore pitched in the minor leagues with him at Baltimore and was a better pitcher then than the Babe; yet Ruth was adulated far more than Shore.
		Shore, sent hurriedly to the mound in Ruth's place, did not allow anyone to reach first base in the nine full innings that followed and was credited with a perfect game.
		Shore went into the armed forces in 1918 during World War I, but Ruth, who was married by then, did not; Shore was not the same pitcher after the war, and by 1921 his big league career was all over, just as Ruth was moving into the big, big money.

		Richmond, Shore and Robertson did not pitch the required 10 seasons, and Larsen, Haddix and Barker got no meaningful voting support and are no longer eligible.

	Ernie Shore Perfect Game? - Baseball Fever
		I'm sure this ruling as a "perfect game" was later reversed -- even though Shore gave up no baserunners and was on the mound for all 27 outs.
		The game was clearly a "combined no hitter" -- but with no less honor and respect due to Ernie Shore for tossing a truly magnificent game.
		The perfect game was over when Babe Ruth walked the leadoff man. Shore did get all 27 outs, but he did not throw the first pitch.
