I saw Greg Maddux set the record for most consecutive innings without a walk. He was hit by a pitch later in the game.

I guess a couple stand out:
1. Don Wilson's no- hitter versus the Braves in the Astrodome. It was the first baseball game I went to.
2. The Blue Jays extra inning World Series clincher versus the Braves at Fulton County Stadium in 1992.

Robin Ventura Grand Slam Single was good one.

Yankees win game 5 in 2000 World Series on my home turf Shea Stadium I didn't like so much :(

Nolan Ryan/George Brett last game in Arlington was fun.

Final games of the 70 and 71 WS in Baltimore. Last Senators game ever. The 86 WS games that were in Boston. :mad:

My Giants win the NL pennant in 1989. Screamed my head off that day.

For me, this would have been a PCL game around '58. It was at Westgate Park, home of the minor league Padres. Can't recall the opponent, but Al Worthington - ex of the NY Giants, tossed a no-no. His gem was saved by a diving, last out catch by CF Jim Bolger - ex of the Cubs. Over 55 years ago and I still remember it.

Sept 26, 1981 in the Astrodome. Nolan Ryan no hit (his fifth) the Dodgers

Game 6 of the 2011 world Series. Cardinals kept coming back to win. Awesome.

October 3, 1995 - ALDS Game #1 - Cleveland 5 Boston 4
 

Cleveland beats Boston 5-4 in thirteen inning in this gem of a game. It was the first post season game for Indians since 1954. Albert Belle ties the game at 4 in the bottom of the 11th inning with a solo home run and Tony Pena wins the game with a two out solo shot in the bottom of the 13th inning sometime after 1:00 a.m.

Guess mine is 2012 Turner Field in Atlanta...Yankees vs. Braves....A-Rod ties Lou Gehrig for career grand slams...ball hit like 12-15 rows in front of me....so I was on ESPN:D......could see me with arms held high in celebration.....Yankee fan 4-life

game 4 of the 78 WS.

The major league debut of Midre Cummings.

Yeah....I got nothing.

Tom C

Game 6 - 1995 WS; Glavine 1 hits the Indians to win Atlanta's only WS title.
Also saw U Jiminez no-hit the Braves in Atlanta.

I only get to a couple of big league games each year. Toss up between the 1989 All Star game and ARod's 250th home run.

Lot of no-hitters.

I haven't been to a game of note yet, but I'll be at the Yankees final home game this season. Which will unfortunately be Jeter's last.:(

1) Tom Seaver's 300th Win -- Aug 4, 1985

http://lifetimetopps.files.wordpress...seaver-300.jpg

This game was played on Phil Rizzuto Day at Yankee Stadium when they retired his number and he got knocked over by a "holy" cow they presented him with).

Here's the video of the knock-down:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i99IIPdn-9c

Here's the video: http://m.mlb.com/video/v3134880/nyyo...th-iconic-flip

Robert S

David Cone's perfect game.

The first wild card game in history.

The final game at old Yankee Stadium.

Mariano Rivera's final appearance in a major league game / at Yankee Stadium.

Pennant Clincher 1991:
 

Nobody in Atlanta knew how to react, so we cleared the parking lot in no time!

I gave away tickets to Felix Hernandez's perfect game does that count?

Cal Ripken 2,131 in 1995
Steve Carlton's last game in 88
Mike Mussina's 1-hitter in 97 or 98

Andy

I also was present for the 1972 All-Star Game and Hank Aaron's homer landed about 50 feet away from me.

Jose Jiminez no hitter 1999
All the World Series games played in Arlington including Albert Pujols 3 homer game
Game 3 2005 World Series, the one that went forever and ever and ever and ever
1st ever interleague game -- why the schedule maker put that in Arlington is beyond me
1987 All-Star Game, may have been the worst basebal game I ever saw
1995 All-Star Game, just a tad better than the 87 game
FInal day of 1993 season in Arlington --- Ryan and Brett's final day in uniform
1990 Game in Arlington when Carlton Fisk established the record for most career homers by a catcher

There may be others, but this is a start

Most historic: 1979 All-Star Game at Seattle
 

Most historic game for me would be the 1979 All-Star Game at Seattle. Dave Parker (among others) was mighty impressive.

Most memorable? That would be my first-ever game at historic Fenway Park: Boston Red Sox vs. Cleveland Indians on Monday, June 24, 1963. Gary Geiger homered with Roman Mejias aboard with two outs, bottom of the 9th, to give the Sox a 7-5 victory! It was a walk-off homer (to deep center field) and pretty exciting! The box score from that game: http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...96306240.shtml

Then again, some folks just get lucky!
 

This Baby’s First Two Baseball Games Were Perfect Games

Has anyone considered that this might just be a magic baby?

Meet Bode Dockal. He’s probably magic. Like a wizard or something. He’s now just over one-year-old and he’s attended two major league baseball games. Both were perfect games.

There have been a total of 23 perfect games in the history of major league baseball. Each team plays 162 games every year. There are 30 teams. Major League baseball is over 100 years old. The math gets confusing due to league expansion and length of schedule change, but we can jump to the bottom of the page here. There have been 23 perfect games out of 201,870 total games, AND TWO OF THEM HAPPENED THE FIRST TWO TIMES THIS BABY WAS IN THE STANDS. Put it another way. This baby is a goddamn wizard who is making perfect games happen and if my Cleveland Indians don’t give him season tickets for life and I mean tomorrow, I’ll hate them forever.

After Paul Dockal (Bode’s dad) took his son to the White Sox/Mariners game on April 21st, he couldn’t believe his luck. After all, Dockal is a life long White Sox fan, and that was the day that Sox starter Phil Humber shocked the world by going from a no-name pitcher to one of 22 men to have ever have a perfect afternoon on the baseball diamond. For that to happen at his son’s first game ever must have felt like insane luck (and a good omen for the future of the Sox). Of course at that point, Dockal didn’t know that his son was magic. He just thought it was good luck.

Fast forward to last week. Paul’s brother Pete and Pete’s girlfriend Rosa were in town and they wanted to catch a game at Safeco Field. Seeing as there was a Wednesday afternoon game (which meant Bode could be in bed at a normal hour) and that Mariners ace Felix Hernandez was pitching, it seemed like a no brainer. Bode would get to see his second major league game.

And then King Felix threw a perfect game, and everyone looked at Bode and their brains exploded, because how the fuck is that even possible?

No word on when Bode will see his third game, but if the Dockal’s let the world know before going, you should buy tickets. Don’t doubt the power of a magic baby, because who knows, he probably has other, eviler powers. I don’t know. I’m not well-versed in magic babies.

April 6th, 1973, Fenway Park. The first DH ever used. I was sitting down the RF line. I knew it was coming but was still aghast. Still not on board ;).

Not a baseball game, but I was as this year's Super Bowl in NY/NJ.

Great experience, hope each person on the board gets to go to at least one Super Bowl. I had my name pulled in the random drawing , and was able to buy 2 tickets at face value.

Here are my seats:


Tony

The first World Series night game, October 13, 1971 in Pittsburgh.
Game 4, Orioles vs Pirates.

I'll go with Andre Dawson hitting for the cycle or Jose Canseco pitching at Fenway.

Giving it more thought, Nolan Ryan's 7th no-hitter was pretty special.

Clemens 300th win and 4000th strikeout - same game in 2003. June 13 vs Cardinals at Yankee Stadium.

Not much for me:

- I saw a Blue Jays game in their inaugural season

- I saw the Rockies go back-to-back-to-back in 97 at Coors

- I've seen the pro debuts of countless major leaguers while attending Spokane Indians games

I was there, too; stayed over for Game 7...

Curt Schilling 200th win.

I was in Minnesota on business in 1995 when I went to a game and saw Eddie Murray get career hits 2996-2999 but got out when he went for 3000.

Game 7 2001 W.S. Luis Gonzalez game winning hit off Mariano Rivera in the bottom of the 9th.
1962 All-star game at Wrigley Field
August 1957 Cubs Giants game at the Polo Grounds. Bob Rush pitched all 16 innings in a losing effort for the Cubs.

Being a Cub fan, would rather have had teeth pulled than see the Cardinals win. LOL.

Actually it was pretty exciting for Cardinal fans at that time but I have a few friends that are Cardinal fans where it kind of went to their heads. Go Cubs Go

Anthony, Josh and I were all at Clayton Kershaw's first :) no-hitter out here in Los Angeles. That was pretty special.

I was in the Red's dugout in Wrigley Field when Pete Rose tied Ty Cobb's hit record on September 9, 1985.

Chicago Cubs Don Caldwell's no-hitter against the St. Louis Cardinals May 15, 1960 second game of a doubleheader. My dad ran on the field but my mom wouldn't let me.

Colt 45's first Game
April 10, 1962
Bobby Shantz vs Don Cardwell
Colts 11 Cubs 2
Ramon Mejias hit 2 dingers
My first time to see Ernie Banks, he hit a homer also

Also, I went to one game in 1989 was 9th longest game in major league history.
22 Innings, 7hrs 14 minutes , Astros 5 Dodgers 4
I remember some position players had to pitch, I recall Craig Reynolds pitching an inning.

Funny story about that game, sometime about the 19th inning my buddy comes back and says would you go get me a beer they won't serve me anymore. I went up to get him a beer and reason they couldn't serve is because it was after 2:OO AM

Never know what your going to see at the old Ballpark

Hey, Don & Jerry-
 

Have another cup of coffee- it's Cardwell, not Caldwell.

I looked it up just to be sure my 5-Hour was working.

Yount's 3000t hit, All-Star game at Wrigley, two playoff clinching games ; one each at Wrigley and Miller Park, three playoff games at Wrigley.

Game 7 - 1979 World Series at Memorial Stadium. As a young kid...the first time I ever felt crushed and defeated. All I remember is Willie Stargell's 6th inning home run to put Pittsburgh up 2-1 on my Orioles. First time in my life I heard "silence" in the stadium...I was 8 years old.

"2130" and "2131"

8/21/93 - Nolan Ryan's last start at Camden Yards.
