ESPN currently has a pop-up window slide-type show of the top 50 baseball postseason performances ever.
Thomson’s 1951 “Shot Heard Around the World,” giving the Giants the pennant over the Dodgers in a three-game playoff, is nowhere to be found.
OK, maybe it was a special playoff and not part of regularly scheduled postseason games. But, it WAS a playoff!
And, on a separate webpage that links from that Thompson’s epic feat is NOT among the top 10 events of the 1950s to be voted on.
Unbelieveable.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
