*RAISES HAND*
July 24th 1973. Exactly 10 years to the day prior to George Brett's pine tar HR.
I remember it very well. The Oakland A's were such badasses. They had just won their first of three consecutive WS and even though Charlie Finley was a ****wit, he knew how to build a winner. Plus, they had the greatest uni's.
From Catfish breaking his thumb to Reggie's "air" doughnut. I remember most of that game. What that article fails to state is that Bench's HR left the stadium that night. He hit it off the roof of the LF GA concession stand and it bounded out of the stadium. And Bobby Bonds hit a monster shot too.
