Imagine going back 62 years and stopping 2 days too late…🙂 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by zev\_steinhardt \* > \*\*You are correct. My apologies. \*\* I’m glad, or I’d be very concerned for Mr Feller’s mind. A few years ago, I requested that he autograph a portrait for me with that date and event. He inscribed it “Bob Feller - April 16, 1940 - Opening Day No Hitter.” Knowing that he feels it one of his greatest achievements (and that he scours the scores on Opening Day to make sure no one else has done it), I’d be very concerned if he wrote the wrong day! :eek: ---

Champange in the bay area. Threats of lawsuits in St. Petersburg. ha ha ha ha! I got to see this one, but I want to see it again 😉 > > …\*\* Ditto on these, plus: Sep 17th, 1997- Brian Johnson walk-off HR againt Dem Bums First-round playoffs, 2000, Giants vs Mets, I forget which game… Giants ties in the Bottom of the Ninth on J T Snow’s right-field line HR. Crowd goes insane… would be a truly classic baseball moment if we hadn;t ended up losing the damn game. I remember it being one of the most emotionally tormenting (positive and negative) games ever. October 17, 1989- Giants vs A’s, Game 4 of the World Series. (Well, it was supposed to be) ---
