Jiltedin2007-Were you a Red Sox fan AND a Lakers fan back then? That's what you claim to be on other videos a Red Sox fan and a LA Lakers fan... Jiltedin2007 the classic BANDWAGONER
Gibson had more than the Red Sox in shackles. Bob Gibson was too good in 1968 striking out 17 Detroit Tigers in one game of the 1968 World Series the major league record for a World Series game. That record still stands after more than 40 years. He was the main reason they lowered the pitching mound. His 1968 E.R.A. was an incredible 1.12
I know, then all of a sudden, everything just fell apart for St. Louis in the World Series, and lost to the Detroit Tigers in 7 Games. The last 2 Games in St. Louis.
What did Bob Gibson win in 1969? In 1969, the Mets won the World Series. When I was saying "Falling Apart", if my memory served me correct, the Cardinals were up 3-1 in the Series, and all of a sudden, they couldn't close out the Tigers, like those Yankee Asshole couldn't have finished in the 2004 ALCS.
Yes those Tigers had Hall of Famer Al Kaline on that team, and Catcher Bill Freehan. Along with Mickey Lolich and Denny McClain, and deservingly so the Tigers were the 1968 World Champions.
1.12 is a totally unbelievable ERA, but what is more unbelivable is how you can possibly lose 9 games with that ERA (as Gibson did in '68)--must have been a lot of 1-0 games!!

Bob Gibson was too good that year, and had the Red Sox in shackles!

I'm a Giants fan, but collected tapes on all teams. Had the album from Fleetwood Records. Love this stuff!!!
