@hj-xb2tr 4 года назад

Not really. It's like not Stanley was throwing nasty stuff that painted the corners. Two pitches early in that at bat were grooved over the heart of the plate with nothing on them, and Mookie just fouled one off into the seats and dribbled the other one by his feet. He was bailed out by Stanley and by John McNamara leaving in a crippled guy to play first for the bottom of the inning.. Not once did he hit the ball remotely hard against a stiff pitcher with the game on the line

@browsguy 4 года назад

He fouled off six pitchers! not one swing and complete miss or called strike the at bat.

Too bad this error, and not what he did over his whole career, is what will define Bill Buckner's legacy. 😢 A batting title and an All-Star Game appearance with the Cubs. The most difficult batter to strike out for much of his career (and also one of the hardest to walk). A contact hitter with a decent career batting average, and a decent to above average fielder in the outfield and at first base, this error notwithstanding.

"Mookie Wilson still hopes to win it for New York....3-2 the count....and the pitch by Stanley,and a ground ball,trickling,it's a fair ball! ..It get's by Buckner!!! Rounding third Knight!!! The Met's will win the ball game! ....The Met's Win! ..THEY WIN!!!!" Also what made the Met broadcast of the call even better(which you don't hear a lot,but I sure will never forget) was after Murphy says "THEY WIN!!! the second time,and after a short pause,the other radio guy the Met's had at the time Gary Thorne says "Unbelievable!!! ...

Thank you for posting the whole at-bat. This is a perfect example of "taken out of context" - anyone that solely blames Buckner for this debacle needs to see this whole at-bat of Stanley vs Wilson. Stanley had two strikes on Wilson with 2 out, then throws a wild pitch, Mitchell scores and now all the pressure is off Wilson. He could have struck out at that point and we're simply going one more inning (at least). Anyone that shows Buckner's error all by itself is a pea-wit.

I remember when Mookie was at bat, I had gone to my room and was so distraught that we were going to lose. My parents stuck it out, and when the tying run came in, my mother came running up the hall, yelling "They tied the score, they tied the score!!!" At that point, I came back to the living room, because I decided to go down with the ship lol. When that ball rolled through Bill Buckner's legs, my whole house exploded. Even the dogs and my elderly cat were hollering! 😂 The whole neighborhood exploded. What a night! One of the best moments in baseball. ❤

The absolute greatest part of that call by Scully was the nearly 2 minutes of silence (where the announcers didn't say anything) he let happen right after the winning run scored - just letting the camera scan the crowd/stadium/dugout and just letting you take it all in. He knew not to try and fill in one of baseball greatest moments with talking.

Even being a Mets fan since childhood, I found the grudge against Buckner to be pretty shabby and unfair.

If this had occurred during some non-consequential season game, there wouldn't have been much of a row over it.

@@bobbym.2130 Yep. I came to that same conclusion after watching the Wilson/Buckner play over and over again. Buckner (flat-footed) was not that much closer to 1st base than Wilson (full steam) was when the ball got near Buckner's glove.

@musicaficionado3805 4 года назад

What I love about this game is how it proves how the Mets earned the nickname “The Amazins.” Vin Scully, who is know to be a very calm announcer, is in absolute shock when he says “BEHIND THE BAG!...” Even he couldn’t believe what was going on in this inning. You never can count the Mets out and never know whether they’ll win big or lose big. That’s why I’m proud to call myself a die hard Mets fan.

@bmasters1981 Год назад

"Even he couldn’t believe what was going on in this inning." That's right-- just before Mookie did what he did, Vin said, quite rightly, "Can you believe this ball game at Shea!" and Joe Garagiola summed it up perfectly: "Oh, brother!"

@hittman1222 Год назад

It's odd that with two strikes on Wilson, Scully never once mentions that the Sox are one strike away from their first World Series in almost 70 years. Today's announcers would try to wring every last ounce of drama out of the situation and create a profound narrative. Scully trusted his viewers.

@ctafrance 4 года назад

Exactly. But...it is only the SECoND greatest call. The greatest was his call of Kirk Gibson's homerun for the Dodgers, where Vinnie did the same thing, let the crowd roar. That one was just a little better because 1. he was calling for his own home team, the Dodgers, and 2. it was supposed to be impossible for Gibson, hobbling on TWO bad knees, to do what he did. You hit with your legs as much as anything else... That home run made Gibbie a legend as much as Buckner's fielding ruined his reputation...

Sean DeMarco no he had horrible knees by that point in his career and was only playing in the 10th inning so that he could be out there when they clinched the WS. He usually was pulled for a defensive replacement in the 7th inning. It was well known that Buckner sometimes couldn’t get all the way down to field grounders by 1986, and it wasn’t at all out of the realm of possibility that something like this would happen. I believe that if the Red Sox were up by 1 instead of by 2 he would have been pulled for a defensive replacement, but McNamara thought with a 2 run lead it was fine to leave him in.

Because through it all that was a routine play and a spectacular error. Wild pitches happen almost every game. Managerial decisions backfire almost every playoff series. How often do you see a gentle ground ball 5 hole a professional infielder, especially at so crucial a moment? And yes he absolutely did cause them to lose this game. Maybe not tie it up, but if he makes that play (which again you would expect a little leaguer to make) they live to fight another inning. The fact is you win as a team and you lose as a team. But if you can’t see why this is called the “Buckner play” I don’t know what else to tel you.

@williamkanejr3233 3 года назад

No. It’s not Buckner who is to blame. McNamara should have had Stapleton in the game as it was. Oh and I blame Gedman more than Stanley. That should have been a Passed Ball not a Wild Pitch. Oh, and even if Buckner fields the ball cleanly, he wasn’t beating Mookie Wilson to that bag.
