#OTD July 19, 1960 – Juan Marichal makes his major league debut with the San Francisco Giants and tosses a complete game, one-hit shutout in a 2-0 win over the Philadelphia Phillies before a crowd of 13,279 at Candlestick Park. The Dominican Dandy retired the first 19 batters he faced and held the Phils hitless for 7.2 innings before pinch-hitter Clay Dalrymple stroked a clean single to center to end the no-hit bid. Marichal struck out 12 and allowed just two base runners on the day to notch his first of 238 wins in a Giants’ uniform. #SFGiants #DominicanDandy
