Default Game 5 of the 1964 World Series
Yankees vs. Cardinals. Monday, October 12. I was 13 years old. My uncle had two tickets, but was called in to a business meeting at the last minute and couldn't go to the game. He dropped me and my 10 year old cousin (his son) off at the gate and picked us up after the game. Not many parents would be comfortable with that arrangement these days!

Saw Tom Tresh tie the game at 2 - 2 in the bottom of the ninth with a home run off Bob Gibson only to have Tim McCarver hit a home run in the top of the tenth to win it.
