What is the best baseball game you have seen?
Following on from the thrad mentioned last nights playoff game as a classic, what IS the best baseball game you have ever seen? Be it in person, be it on the tele or even on some kind of classic games channel.
As said in the earlier thread its Game 7 of the 2001 series for me. The series itself was arguably one of the best ever, partly because of baseball, partly because of the cicrcumstances surrounding it (9/11), and partly because the Yankees have ZERO world series rings since then.
Game tied at 1 through 7 innings when Soriano homers off Schilling, Batista gets 1 out then RJ gets 4 outs on 1 days rest. Hearing Gracey tell Schilling he loves him and Bob Brenly telling him the Dbacks would get the run back when he made the change. "Mr automatic" blowing the heart of the Dbacks order around a Steve Finley single, then came the bottom of the 9th which had almost everything happen that nobody could predict, Tony Womack tying the game off the best closer in history, Scott Brosius holding onto the ball after a force at 3rd when he probably could have gunned it across and turned the DP.
Craig Counsell HBP a pitch to load the bases for Gonzo with Jay Bell on 3rd and, well, you know the rest....
The best game/world series of the modern generation without a shadow of a doubt
Ok you guys, lets hear your opinion, GO......
