Favorite moments in sports... a video thread.
What are some of your all time favorite, singular, moments in sports?
Game 7 of the 1992 NLCS - Braves vs Pirates. Braves were down 2-0 in the bottom of the 9th. Braves get the score to 2-1 on a Ron Gant Sac Fly that brings home Terry Pendleton (former Cardinal for anyone who might not remember).
With 2 outs, bottom of the 9th, in Game 7... a ****ing nobody 3rd string catcher (who had only played 12 games for 10 ABs for the Braves that season) named Fransico Cabrera is brought in as a pinch hitter with the bases loaded. David Justice is on 3rd and the slowest man on Earth, Sid Bream, is on 2nd. The count is 2-1 and then...
BETTER VIDEO QUALITY HERE (but I love Skip Caray's call in the first video SO much more)
Fun fact...“Van Slyke told MLB Network that on the Francisco Cabrera game-winning hit, he motioned to Barry Bonds to move in. Bonds responded by giving him the finger, and the ball ended up landing exactly where Van Slyke said to play.”
