 The story you related was correct. The first batter was walked, and Ruth
was ejected for protesting. Ernie Shore came in to pitch, the runner was
thrown out trying to steal second, and Shore retired the next 26 batters
in a row. Therefore, he got credit for a perfect game. There have been other
combined no-hitters, but they don't spring to mind.
