1968 WS Gm1: Gibson sets WS record with 17 strikeouts

It’s a shame we didn’t win that World Series. I was 8 years old then we actually got to watch some of World Series at School. All Day games back then. Thanks for the memories!

I interviewed JD Martinez, one of the best hitters in baseball. He went from being cut by the worst team in baseball to becoming an All-Star – in an unconventional way (that everyone can learn from). Check out the interview here:

Gibson threw more than 140 pitches that day. Went the distance in a 10-1 win in game four— and afterward admitted he was tired and hoped it didn’t go to seven. By the seventh inning of game seven, the Tigers finally got to him.

Look at McCarvers glove and how little he had to move it. Bob was INCREDIBLE

And then they lowered the mound.

But Mickey and the Bengals got the last laugh in game 7!

Watched that game what a great performance

It’s all in the legs

Notice there's no strutting around. He was all business.
