Remembering Mookie

Game 6 of the 1986 World Series.

This was the most thrilling moment in sports for me, and there can never be one that tops it, because as Mookie says, I remember exactly where I was when it happened, and who I was with.

I was watching the game with my father and brother in my brother's apartment in Palo Alto. My father would have been about my age now. What I remember most about it was my father rolling around on the floor in disbelief as the game got more and more weird. You have to understand something. My dad was not known for being casual or having a great sense of humor. But what a moment.

I'm so glad the MLB decided to make a video about this. Until now you couldn't find it on the web. Every time one showed up they made them take it down.

Oh Mookie. I'd sing God Bless Mookie if it worked as well as God Bless Hunter Pence.
