Scott, that's a great ball. How did you get that one? I can say without a doubt that Vandy's record will never be broken...maybe tied, but does anyone really expect a pitcher is going to throw 3 no hitters in a row?
Jimmy, thanks for starting this thread. Famous plays and tickets for those games are now a primary focus in my collecting. I know I'll never get a 7/4/39 Gehrig ticket or a "shot heard round the world" ticket, but there are so many other great events that are readily available.
Here are a couple of signed magazines representing famous plays. I don't have the tickets for these yet, but they're on the to get list.
