I now consider my pass "Complete" w/ all the major "players" involved in winning that game.
For those not familiar, I now have the Team owner (Ben Mondor, deceased), the Mgr (Morgan), winning pitcher (Bobby Ojeda), winning run (Marty Barrett), winning RBI (Dave Koza) & the 2 Hall of Famers who played in that game, Wade Boggs & Cal Ripken Jr.
Needless to say, I'm pretty sure this is a unique item & am about 100% certain you won't see another one! It is one of the highlights of all the "stuff" I have!
Thought you might enjoy seeing it!

Awesome piece. Congratulations. And I had never heard of this game so now I get to go enjoy reading up on it. Thanks for sharing.
