Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 4257746, member: 289"] Last night, as things evolved in the 9th, I recalled another game in Philadelphia from (gulp!) 32 years ago when this almost happened to us: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/PHI/PHI199007250.shtml[/URL] The Phillies, down 3-10, opened with 7 consecutive seeing eye ground balls. Five were right up the middle. I recall one that went between the pitcher, who lunged full extension to his left and the second basemen lunged to his right, full extension and it went between them, which I didn't think was physically possible. They finally got a double play, on which the 9th run scored and the tying run went to third. The game then ended on a line-out to the shortstop! [/QUOTE]
