Yankees/Pirates 1960 World Series Game 7 on MLB Network

[Dr. Jack]

Not sure if any will be interested in watching this. Heard Costas interviewed on Mad Dog yesterday about this. Interesting about how the game was called back then, etc. I had heard the story of the tapes being found.

It's like 2:05 with no commercials. Wednesday, 8pm I believe.

Will you watch this?

Any interest at all?

It was a game that saw the lead change hands four times, most dramatically, of course, with the only Game 7 walk-off home run in World Series history. It was a game between the underdog blue-collar Pirates, from a blue-collar city still bursting with steel mills, and the glamorous Yankees of Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra and Whitey Ford. It was a game that, oddly, featured not a single strikeout (the only time that has happened in World Series history). It did feature 19 runs and 24 hits and was played in a brisk 2 hours and 36 minutes. It was full of managerial decisions to second-guess, clutch hits and unlikely heroes, pitchers throwing through pain, and strange, quirky plays.
