This made me inexplicably happy. And I'm a (casual) Red Sox fan.

Since the Dodgers seems to be tanking it right now, I would love to see a Mets-Sox series again.

Although I would feel for Buckner, since such a series would inevitably result in that clip being played over and over again. Yeah, he let the ball go through his legs, but it was only the final part of a long slow train wreck. It's unfair to put all the blame on him, and he did have a very good career.

But yeah, the Sox and Mets. . .bring 'em on.

WANT!

(The announcers had started saying what a great series it had been. I remember screaming at the big-screen tv in my dorm at Michigan, It's not over, dammit... It's not over...)

that's a sweet pic.

actually the ultimate sports memorabilia/attire I would want would be a 1966-style Orioles jersey with the name and number of this great O's hurler, since we share a surname

Silly Red Sox. Everyone knows that all you need to do when that happens in RBI Baseball is hit the reset button.

I knew they were sunk when they put Schiraldi in.

I tried, but I still can't watch it, not even as a videogame
