Mays' catch was pure baseball instinct... can't teach it. Jeter's catch when he went into the third-base seats was made of the same cloth.

It saved the game for the Giants who went on to win in extra innings on Dusty Rhodes walk off three run homer in the 10th.

I am taking my son to see the Giants and Dodgers tomorrow. This morning he said "Dad you know why Saturday is great? we are going to a baseball game"

Look at the walls in the outfield!

Forgot that a player could get seriously hurt against the wall back in the good old days.

I still clearly remember seeing this catch on a Movietone Newsreel at the Upton Theater's Saturday afternoon 25 cent matinee. Say Hey!! A great ballplayer, Willie Mays.
