I was tending bar in Wildwood NJ that summer and we watched every single game (our VCR was the size of suitcase, but it worked). Wilson/Dykstra, Backman/Tuffel, Hernandez, Straw, the Kid, Knight/HoJo, etc., Kevin Mitchell coming off the bench, Rafael Santana hit like .200 but was an Electrolux at SS. The SP was killer led by Doc Gooden and the pen mowed them down too -- Jesse Orosco and Roger McDowell closing games. That club was one of the best of all time. They could not have been more fun to watch too. It was the saddest moment of my life in my dorm room watching the Red Sox about to win it all in Game 6, then 30 minutes later, the happiest as Schiraldi, Stanley and Gedman and poor Bill Bukner broke down (the game was tied when he booted that ball and Mookie may have beaten him to 1st anyway, never understood why Boston pretty much only him for losing the Series -- not to mention they went out and lost game 7). Pretty amazing season that year too. Stros and Angels werre great clubs too.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533703303439123333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-88590701727583611742012-12-05T16:32:03.845-05:002012-12-05T16:32:03.845-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.NatsLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06814911056080758503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-59922572303789810372012-12-05T16:31:47.693-05:002012-12-05T16:31:47.693-05:00Pirates are a mirage.
