9/30/27 Ruth hits his 60th
4/15/47 Jackie Robinson's first game
10/3/51 Bobby Thomson's homer
10/8/56 Larson's Perfect Game
10/9/66 Orioles finish sweeping the Dodgers
10/13/60 Maz's homer
EDIT...I knew I was forgetting a game I'd love to have been at and it bugged me that I couldn't put my finger on it when I was originally posting. I remember getting home from school in time to watch the last few innings of Game 7 of the Series in 1960 with my mom. I was a wild game even before Maz's game-winner. The nuns at St. Mary's in Nutley always rolled out the TVs for World Series games. We'd hustle to get the bus and get home to catch the end if a game if we were lucky.
