Great to hear everyone's excellent choices ! Here are 3:
1. The 1917 Timothy Murnane Benefit game at Fenway Park, including the non-game skills. 2. The first All-Star game July 6, 1933 3. Nolan Ryan's August 20, 1974 game in which he was clocked at 100.9 (closer to 108 mph due to clocking reading near home plate) And I was actually there - but would love to go back in time and see it again ! Is still listed in Guinness Book of World Records. 4. August 15, 1916 Babe Ruth, pitching for Boston, defeats Walter Johnson 1-0 in 13 innings Last edited by Touch'EmAll; 01-09-2024 at 03:17 PM. Reason: add 4th choice |

1)Ted Williams' home run in his last at bat (still undecided between that and the double header in Philadelphia on the last day of the 1941 season)
2)A pitching duel between Mathewson and Mordecai Brown 3)The game where Josh Gibson hit the ball in Pittsburgh that came down the next day in Philadelphia. 4)Bobby Thompson's home run 5)A game pitched by Ol' Hoss Radbourn down the stretch in 1884.

1) 1867 National Association of Base-Ball Players Convention -- to talk some sense into them and approve entry of the Pythians into the league and stop segregation from taking root in the game.
2) Game 7 Of 1937 Ciudad Trujillo Championship 3) Game 6 of the 1986 Mets Red Sox World Series 4) April 18th - 1946. Jackie's debut for the Montreal Royals in NJ. 5) The 1930 or 1934 game where Josh Gibson purportedly hit one out of Yankee Stadium, or close to it. Honorable mention: Any game Ruth played in. |

Great thread. My picks:
1909 World Series - Cobb v Wagner Babe Ruth Pitching for the Red Sox June 3, 1932, Yankees vs Athletics - Gehrig gets 4 HRs Nolan Ryan's last no hitter Sandy Koufax's Perfect Game 1968 World series Game 1: Bob Gibson gets 17 strikeouts

June 4, 1974 Cleveland Stadium for the 10 cent beer night. Heard many stories about this game. When I was at Youngstown State one of my history professors went to the game, and he would tell the story of what he saw that night. It also was better than hearing about what ever history he was lecturing about on that day.
