I remember the guy’s first name was Tom...something like “Smack”....utility infielder, I think 74 was his rookie year. Am I right?

I know Al Downing pitched it and Bill Buckner was the outfielder trying to catch it.

Tom House. Not a bad relief pitcher.

The Braves had stationed pitchers to retrieve the ball should Aaron have hit a home run.
