Back in July 1978, the Boston Red Sox had a 14-game lead on their hated rivals, the New York Yankees. In what had to be one of the greatest collapses in baseball history, the Red Sox had to play the Yankees in a one-game playoff in Fenway Park. Down 2-0 in the top of the 7th inning, the Yankees had two men on with no outs, but poor hitting Bucky Dent coming to the plate. In Dent’s 12 season career, he batted .247 with 40 home runs, but he had recently been hitting a paltry .140. The count got to 1-1 and with another swing of the bat, Dent hit the ball over the left-field wall known as The Green Monster. Bill White, the Yankees broadcaster, shrieked, “Deep to left! Yastrzemski will not get it!” The Yankees won the game 5-to-4 and went on to beat the Dodgers in the World Series. Happy birthday, Bucky F’ing Dent.
