I hear ya. There was also the fateful moment in Game 5 when Tony Clark hit the ground-rule double that would have driven in the series-winning run if it didn't bounce over the wall in the right-field corner.
The baseball gods were smiling on us that year, for once.
Same thing in the 78 playoff. Piniella playing out of position on RF line, can't see a thing due to blinding sun, but is able to catch a ball on Lynn, then same thing on a hop on Remy base hit, stopping Burleson at 2nd when he could have easily jogged to third. Rice then hits a bomb out that would have scored Burleson for a sac fly and tying run...arggggggggggggggggggggggh
