Greatest Baseball Game ever....

Which of these all time great games is the bast in baseball history....

I don't want to spoil the results for you.

Fisk's shot was classic but if it werent for Bernie Carbo's pinch hit, 3-run homer in the 9t, Fisk's HR would not have happened.

Either way, first you gotta throw out all the "walk-off" homers. One at-bat does not a great game make.

If "most exciting," I'm tempted to go with Game 7 in the '91 Series, but even there I'm vacillating. Ain't much more exciting than watching a perfect game unfold. And let's remember the final score was 2-0, and Sal Maglie threw a 5-hitter for the Dodgers.

I call that one fuckingly awesome hell of a ball game.

MLB.com has an archived library of many of them. For $2.95 you get a 24 hour pass...it is really cool listening to these classic games as they happened.

And the ads are priceless!!!

I subscribe to Gameday Audio, but that's all I've messed with.

(It crapped out today. Lost the Dodgers game in the 7th and couldn't get the Giants at all.)

Thanks for the tip. :hi:

But I went with Game 7 1960 World Series. You just gotta love an underdog team like the Pirates and a class act guy like Maz hitting a walk off homerun against the hated Yankees. I also would have considered Game 6 of the 1975 World Series too.

And they are all very exciting games...I made it tough on purpose!!!

That 1960 game isn't as remembered as some, but a 10-9 game, with Mantle hitting a home run, and helping tie the game in the 9th...and then that home run....

Very excellent game!

but there's no denying that a walkoff homerun by a guy better known for his glove than his bat is memorable, its great that Maz got in to the hall of fame.

Robots with swords and guns fighting to the death over bases! A concept far ahead of it's time.

Two reasons: 1. It is the only perfect game or no-hitter in playoff and world series history. 2. Larsen was a Yankee and the yankees kick ass. I almost picked the Ruth one. Also, with your 2001 WS one, Games 3 and 4 were the yanks rallied and HRed off Kim in the 9th in both games were better than Game 7.

I could go on. Yankee fans know about greatest games. No comparison.

That one seems to be forgotten by many.

even though Carter sucked for the Orioles in 98, I remember him well, god I am getting old, you know youre getting up there in age when you're older than your teams projected amateur first round draft choice.

There's no way I can forget it.

:(

Almost every game in that series was a classic, and the same went for the ALCS, Angels vs. Red Sox.

I was wondering where that one was! :D

I was working late that night and we had a tv in the lunch room. The people cleaning the office got their friends down from other floors who got people working late to come down, and the lunchroom was packed with people watching that game.

It got so late we finally had to all leave, and I wound up re-cleaning the lunchroom. Back then you could still smoke in offices.

The Mariners win their first playoff series ever, in amazing, nail-biting style. It single-handedly saved baseball the year after the lockout.

And add to the fact that going into August, the Mariners were behind the Angels by more than a dozen games. They had to play a tie-breaker the day after the season ended.

"The Atlanta Braves and N.Y. Mets labored through almost six hours of baseball in the late hours of Oct. 17, a rainy night in Queens. The Braves mercifully scratched out a 3-2 lead in the top of the 15th inning, but watched as the Mets loaded the bases and tied the game in the bottom half. Needing just one more run to win it, third baseman Robin Ventura launched a home run that caused a celebration that nearly dried up the rain. He was mobbed before he could reach second base and it wasn't until the next day scorekeepers came up with the phrase, "grand slam single." http://www.infoplease.com/spot/99sportsmoments1.html

That was one of my most exciting sports memories. I was too young to remember the 86 Series first hand so this was it for me. Unfortunately Kenny Rogers would blow it in game six for us, but that is another story entirely. From one of my greatest sports memories to one of my worst in a matter of a day or two. That 1999 team was really great

Tulane and East Carolina in 2005.
Oh, you mean major league baseball.
