God, I doubt I could have taken watching it. I walked away top of the eighth.

Tell you something else. One more game like that and Joe Torre may need paramedics. I don't see how the man can take that kind of excitement. He needs a normal game.

I cracked up when I read about the Mystery and Aura sign in the stands, did you catch that?

If you don't know what I mean, then rather than repeat the story in a later post what happened was-----

Curt Shilling was asked before the trip to New York (I think) if he was impressed by the mystery and aura of the Yankees. So naturally he laughed it off. He said Mystery and Aura were dancers in a nightclub.

So I understand some fans in the seats held up a sign late in the game,
Appearing Nightly,
Mystery and Aura


Now that's funny. Anyway, I'm glad it's a travel day. I really need the sleep.

Re-reading your post, another great pitching battle was Bob Gibson and Mickey Lolich. Lolich not only started the fifth game on only three days rest, he started the seventh against Gibson on two days rest.

He pitched 10 innings in that seventh game if I recall and would not allow the manager to take him out, winning in the tenth.
