Anyone remember the shot heard round the world? No, it's been forgotten except by you guys collecting Thompson/Branca memorabilia.

The Astros have no recourse against the rest of baseball or they would have used the recourse after they lost picks and personnel. The 1951 Giants didn't cheat to win a World Series either. In case anyone forgot, they lost.
