The one-pitch win

Ken Ash played a total of 55 Major League games in his 4 years career. That was all it took for him to make his mark in history.

On July 17, 1930 Ash, then pitching for the Reds, was brought into the game against the Chicago Cubs in the sixth inning with the Reds trailing, no outs, and two runners on base. This was clearly not the best scenario.

Ash threw his first pitch to Charlie Grimm, which he grounded and resulted in a triple play. All outs on tags.

In the bottom half of the 9th, the Reds staged rallied for the comeback, winning 6-5 and thus giving Ash the victory on one pitch, the only person in Major League Baseball to ever accomplish this.

Ash was lifted the next inning for a pinch hitter, and the Reds scored 4 times, giving him the 6-5 win, his last win as a Major League pitcher. Thus, with a single pitch, Ash won a game and became the only person to have accomplished this feat.
