0:05 ugh, right to the throat.

WHO cares if they ever win again? THIS was a ball-buster that N.Y. will NEVER forget! Luv the Cubbies, Hell No, Love the "never again" Pirates!

Wow! Just found out today that Bing Crosby(part owner of the Pirates 1946-1977), had the ENTIRE GAME recorded by kinescope! MLB network will be airing it soon! They found 5 reels of film in Crosby's wine cellar in San Francisco. Cool and dry conditions are said to have kept the films in pristine condition! Awesome...

go pirates

I remember the one in 1979. That was good too.

The Pirates won the first game 6-4 -- the difference in the game was a home run by Bill Mazeroski... this fact always seems to get lost.

@grkent And Maz should have been the MVP of the series, NOT Richardson. 12 hits in a losing cause doesn't make you an MVP, imo.

[CoreyD1086]

When will the Pirates ever have a winning team again.

[megan92986]

That man in the suit & tie that runs alongside Mazeroski on his right from 3rd base to home plate is my grandpa!

[Gomorrah0]

hes become a part of baseball lore!

[pdonati1]

@megan92986 that is very cool!

[WhatYaGottaKnow]

Didn't know that. Cool blip of information. Remarkable series, for sure.

[dechm4af]

by the way, only game in world series history for a walk off home run in a game 7

[CoreyD1086]

1993 when Joe Carter hit a walk off home run for Toronto against Philadelphia the only other time

[AnBon74]

@CoreyD1086 You are correct BUT that was Game 6.

[kirbycol4]

Carter's was in a Game 6; Maz's Walkoff was the only one ever in a Game 7 World Series!

[dechm4af]

AWESOME!!!
