Billy Maz approaching home plate with the winning run in Game 7 of the 1960 World Series, after slamming the Series-deciding home run to break a 9-9 tie in the bottom of the ninth inning vs. the heavily favored New York Yankees. Mazeroski's dramatic home run -- as abrupt, definitive and decisive as it was -- remains arguably the single most most dramatic moment in World Series history. For some people unfamiliar with his play throughout the years, the home run perhaps overshadowed a long and distinguished Hall of Fame career for Mazeroski, who was one of the best, if not the best, defensive second-baseman in baseball history.. |
