DON LARSEN AND YOGI BERRA
Don Larsen, then an American Major League pitcher for the New York Yankees, was feeling it in his veins on October 8, 1956. He wasn’t overly excited or intimidated by the magnitude of the occasion: Game 5 of the World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers. He went on to pitch a no-hitter that day, the only perfect game ever recorded during a World Series.

This photograph captures a once-in-a-lifetime moment. At Yankee Stadium, Don Larsen runs to hug his teammate and catcher Yogi Berra. They went on to win the series in seven games.
BILL RUSSELL AND WILT CHAMBERLAIN
NBA legends Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain are photographed boxing out against each other, presumably positioning themselves to grab the rebound. Both are members of the NBA Hall of Fame.
BILL RUSSELL AND WILT CHAMBERLAIN
The rivalry between the two centers is one of the greatest on-court rivalries of all-time. Unlike most basketball rivalries, these two giants shared a common position and thus directly guarded each other. In contrast to Chamberlain, Bill Russell is a team player known for his defensive and rebounding prowess. This picture was taken on April 5th, 1968.
