I was at this one. In the 9th, left-hand hitting Richie Ashburn hit a little flare down the 3rd base line that just went foul. Sandy might have been the best ever had he stayed healthy.

He played center field for the Phillies in the first major league game I ever went to. It was at Forbes field back in 1955. Robin Roberts pitched for the Phillies and the big stars for the Pirates then were Ted Kluzuski and some young kid from Puerto Rico that the Pirates stole from the Dodgers. His name was Roberto Clemente.
