I believe it was Matty who drove in the winning run for the Giants in the top of the ninth and Dodger Stadium in the 3 game playoff between the Dodgers and Giants in 1962. Giant fans were fond of saying for years "Manny get your bat". I missed seeing it because I went outside to stand in line for World Series tickets and then came back in for the bottom of the ninth. The longest ride in my life was the 1 hour drive back to Riverside with my two fanatical Giant fan roommates.
I don’t follow sports at all anymore. I do remember the Alou brothers and enjoyed watching them play. The name “Jesus Alou!” became an expression of amazement for me and my friends.
Thanks.
