That game was against the Mariners, I listened to that game until Tatis hit his second homer, the grand slam, which put the game out of reach.

Was reading about Willie Stargell this morning.
There's a guy who hit some moon shots!

At one time, Stargell held the record for the longest home run in nearly half of the NL parks.
Nuts!

Speaking of Ks,

1999 All Star Game in Boston
Pedro Martinez strikes out the first 5 batters!

Got goosebumps watching this when it happened.
Doing it in front of your home town fans?
Place was going crazy.

Also saw that happen in real time. What the replays don't show was that Zimmer was charging him like a mad bull. It was mostly his momentum that made him fall.

And I like Zimmer! He use to coach the Sox.

Speaking of HRs, was just checking the all-time list and there's only about 160 guys in the history of the game who have hit 300+ in their career.

On that note, 1975 World Series:

306 - Fred Lynn
348 - George Foster
376 - Carlton Fisk
379 - Tony Perez
382 - Jim Rice
385 - Dwight Evans
389 - Johnny Bench
452 - Carl Yastrzemski

Reds won in 7 games
Sox outscored them 30-29
That was a FUN WS!

Rizzo just waiting for that good pitch, and then getting it:

Quote:

Anthony Rizzo just homered on the 14th pitch of a PA, to tie the game for the Cubs

That's the most pitches into a plate appearance that a Cubs player has hit a HR since pitch counts have been tracked (1988)
