But that still doesn't change the fact that Ken Hrbek tackled Ron Gant at first base.

I was there that night. If you look at the replay, you'll see that by the time Hrbek's glove hand is under Gant's leg, Gant is already out. His momentum had already taken him off the bag.

That said, the Metrodome was built for football. The seats were angled for football, the lights were angled for football, and the ceiling was, and still is, white. A seat behind home plate didn't face toward center field, it faced toward the corner of the football end zone.

All that said, the Metrodome had what none of the cookie-cutter National League parks of the 1970s and 1980s had. It had personality. Whether that's good or bad, I don't know.

We'll have to agree to have different opinions on that. I watched it on TV, where I saw repeated replays from many different angles.

It was a great Series, with some outstanding pitching performances and some memorable heroics.

My suffering came during earlier World Series. I grew up a Reds fans, with a relative who played ball for the Big Red Machine. Too many Series lost to the Orioles and the A's.
