Robertson must had hit 5-6 homers in that series, and it felt like he single-handedly beat my Giants. As a kid I was devastated 😭 Anyway, the Giants had a good team in 71, just not as good as the Pirates 😀 Thanks for sharing, GO GIANTS!!
oh yeah.. Bob Robertson... broke this kid's heart back then too...
