Ok, I’ll stop soon. Here is another list I love because it’s smart and quirky. It’s Yankee heavy, but if an Angels fan sends me one as good, I’ll post it:

“Rich — Enjoyed yours and they were truly memorable to those who saw them.

Some of mine are: (individual — I was at the park) the Nettles game, Mantle going 5-for-5 with 2 homers on Memorial Day 1968, Jim Abbot backhanding a Baltimore chop with backspin barehanded and nail the runner at first (he got a long standing O from the Stadium crowd in a game in which he was bombed), Guidry catching a foul pop-up bunt, Gooden with no hitter stuff in ‘85 (the Cubs got 2 “hits” courtesy of Wally Backman), and Toby Harrah running down the third base line on Gossage as the tying run with two out in the ninth, running back to third on the fair side, and getting hit on the cheek by a line drive (they replayed it about 20 times and the fans still wouldn’t leave they were laughing so hard). In terms of the overall list, they missed the obvious top two achievements, the called shot and Harvey Haddix’s perfect 12 innings. Didn’t they also miss Williams playing that doubleheader on the ast day in 1941 when his .400 season was on the line?

Also, is it true that Joe DiMaggio snubbed Bobby Kennedy at Old Timers Day in 1964? If so, that surely rates top 10.”
