I was at this one. Jerry Reuss pitched a 5-hitter against the mighty Yanks. Guerrero and Yeager hit back to back homers in the bottom of the 7th in virtually the same spot in left center to beat Guidry 2-1. Goose Gossage hit Ron Cey in the head, and "The Penguin" was down for several minutes. They took him to the hospital, and fortunately he was okay.
Oh, the memories that come seeing those names. Steve Yeager was another of my top favorite Dodgers, aka “The Boomer.” He and Rick Monday were roomies on the road.
I think you’re right re Sandy, he was a true phenom. In the zone like no one before or since.
