Mine was back in 2001, 1 night after he started game 6, Randy Johnson came out in to close game 7 of the WS against the yankees... That was awesome.. Dude came in and retired 4 and sealed the game.. What a fucking beast
That didn't seal anything - Az was still down a run and won that game on a fluke throwing error. Surely you have a better baseball memory than a middle relief appearance that kept his team within one run...
But coincidently, that game is probably my all time WORST baseball memory, for the following reasons:
- 911 was that year and a NY win would have been inspiring
-No team in any sport 4 peats anymore, and that would have been it.
-A Yankee win would have been the culmination of a insane playoff run - the Jeter flip play against the As who had no business losing the ALDS, the destruction of the record setting 115 win Mariner team in the ALCS, and the two insane 9th inning Yankee comebacks off Kim that led to the game 7.
- Clemens outpitched Schilling in an epic battle.
- It was decided because of an error. I hate that the most. Also, a stupid call by Torre playing the infield in. Also, a hit by a shitty, shitty ballplay named Tony Womack. Also, they had a chance to turn a double play on the sac bunt because the bunter slipped, but Brosius didn't look up after the ball was thrown to him...
And, thanks for making me think about it again, asshole.
Please, pick another memory.
