"A little roller up along first... behind the bag! It gets through Buckner! Here comes Knight, and the Mets win it!"
Thanks Vin - you made a lifelong fan out of me and gave my mother and I "the call" of my childhood.

His call of Aaron's 715th is immortal. After letting the crowd noise speak for itself, he took on directly the race issue:
What a marvelous moment for baseball, what a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia, what a marvelous moment for the country and the world. A black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol. And it is a great moment for all of us, and particularly for Henry Aaron."

Pretty cool game to send him off with. A two out homer in the ninth to tie the game, followed by an extra-inning win. The song at the end was a little corny, but the world could probably use a little more of that these days. Glad to see he got to finish up his time at Dodger Stadium on a high note.
