[Old Teufel Hunden]

"George Foster scored on a wild pitch by Pirate pitcher Bob Moose."

And Bob Moose was not long for this world at that time as he died in a car crash a few years later. A lifelong Pittsburgh fan, I'll never forget my brothers and I crying when our mother told us that he had went down in a plane crash. For years, I fantasized that maybe he was living on a deserted island somewhere and would get picked up. Roberto's son got drafted by the Phillies I believe but I don't think he ever made it to the big leagues.

And Jan Hutchins, announcer at Channel 11 in Pittsburgh (were they WIIC or WPXI then?) lost his job after coming on immediately after the game and starting his broadcast with “What a sh*tty way to lose”.
