This Arcade RBIer pitched a 14 inning CG win in the world series.  (I think it is the longest CG in WS history, but a quick search couldn't confirm it).

No idea, but I'll take a educated guess and go Whitey Ford...

I'm gonna guess Bucky Walters (since Ultimate is a fan; I have no idea whether he actually pitched in any Series, though), with Lefty Grove as my second guess.

This inspired another Arcade name-that-player from me; I'll post it when this one has been solved.

Babe Ruth

EDF got it

Thought it might be a little tricky since he's not a pitcher in the game, but there had been some recent discussion about Ruth pitching.

Which arcade RBIer pitched to one batter in a combined no-hitter?

I would guess Righetti, but I assume you migh have used NES instead of Arcade for Dave, so I'll guess Gene Garber.

OK, I looked up the answer, nice one Beef, even looking at the list of all combined no hitters (there were 9), it took me a while.  The funny thing is I read about that one, and still didn't realize the answer, until I looked at the full list.

It's also Ruth.  It's actually a great story - he walked the first batter, complained to the ump, got ejected, then the replacement pitcher came in and threw (I believe) a perfect game.

Gotta love it.

Ruth it is.

One further since I've been looking into No-No's

This Arcade RBIer is one of 2 players to be involved in a Combined No hitter and pitch his own no hitter.  (It's not Ruth this time)

Not only did the replacement pitcher throw a perfect game the rest of the way, but the guy Ruth walked was caught stealing, meaning that the reliever only faced 26 batters in 9 official innings pitched.

Vida Blue is correct, nice work Dryden.
