Default Vandy's ML Debut scored program

Recently I picked up a nicely scored program to Johnny "Double No-Hit" Vander Meer's ML debut. The really cool thing was that it was poorly described on eBay, which set up a great opportunity to finally find this long-time want at an unbelievable price.

On April 22, 1937, Reds rookie southpaw hurler Johnny Vander Meer quietly entered the game as a pinch runner in the 9th inning.
Unfortunately, the hometown Reds ended up on the losing side of a offensive barrage by both teams. The St. Louis Cards prevailed 14-11 over the Reds
