Question: On this day in 1965, Cincinnati Reds pitcher Jim Maloney accomplished what extraordinarily rare feat?

Answer: Jim Maloney threw a 10-inning no-hitter as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0. He became one of just three pitchers to throw an individual extra-inning no-hitter, joining Hooks Wiltse of the New York Giants in 1908 and fellow Reds pitcher Fred Toney, who also threw a 10-inning no-hitter against the Cubs in 1917.
