In 5th grade, Mr. Ellis let us watch the Dodgers/Braves playoff game in 1959. When we had to go home, I rode my bike home and got there just in time to see and hear this, something which is as clear in my mind as it was 50 years ago:

There’s a bouncer over the mound, over second base, Mantilla has it....throws low and wild and Hodges scores, WE GO TO CHICAGO!!!
