Why no mention of his ruining Haddix's perfect game?

[edit]

Don Hoak ruined Harvey Haddix's perfect game in the 12th inning, and yet that isn't in his Wiki? Here is straight from the Wiki for "Perfect game":

"On May 26, 1959, Harvey Haddix of the Pittsburgh Pirates pitched what is often referred to as the greatest game in baseball history.[55] Haddix carried a perfect game through an unprecedented 12 innings against the Milwaukee Braves, only to have it ruined when an error by third baseman Don Hoak allowed Felix Mantilla, the leadoff batter in the bottom of the 13th inning, to reach base."

Don Hoak should absolutely have his error included. If no regular Wikipedian performs the edit by May 26, 2012 (the day & month it happened) then I will perform the edit.
