If you could go back in time to visit one game that you weren't able to attend or watch one player play that you never got to see, what and/or who would it be?
As a Dodgers fan, for me, it would be to attend the first game that Jackie Robinson played in for the Dodgers at Ebbett's Field on April 15, 1947.

I would like to have seen Ty Cobb at his peak.Running the bases with reckless abandonment.

I'd love to have seen a game Jimmy Claxton pitched in, but not the game when he integrated the PCL (1916). Instead I'd go with Claxton in his prime. His only recorded no-hitter (June 22, 1924) in the Tacoma Industrial League. The first two men got on due to errors and Claxton finished the rest in order (4-1 victory). Claxton also led the league in stolen bases that season, beating out a young centerfielder for the Tacoma Avenuers named Roy Johnson.
Fielder Jones was the president of the T.I.L.. When Babe Ruth came to town on a barnstorming tour in October 1924, the only pitcher to throw a no-hitter that season (Claxton) was left off the TIL All-Star roster. Would ask Fielder WTF? http://digitum.washingtonhistory.org...ISOBOX=1&REC=1 Babe, center, middle row Last edited by pariah1107; 01-16-2013 at 02:45 PM. |

Tough call, I would have liked to see Cobb play, and would love to have been at Larsen's world series perfect game, and Mazerowski's 1960 homer against the Yanks, I did see and remember the noise at the game over the TV.
But watching the Babe play ball everyday with a youthful joy would have to be on top of my wish list. He just had fun. billyb |

I would go back to attend the playoff of the "Merkel Boner" game, the last game of the 1908 season Giants v Cubs game.

For me, it would either be watching Bob Hendley of the Cubs throw a one hitter, but losing the game on an unearned run in 1965.
Or, the Marichal v Spahn 16 inning duel in 1963. Although the Haddix game is up there on my list. Doug Last edited by doug.goodman; 01-25-2013 at 08:43 PM. |
