OBSCURE FACTOID



When Bobby Thomson hit his "shot heard around the world" to win the 1951 pennant for the Giants over the Dodgers, the player in the on-deck circle was rookie Willie Mays. The Dodgers were criticized for not walking Thomson to face the rookie.

More specifically McKay was asked what he thought about the execution of his offense.

One of the great quotes of all time.
