The subject of this thread is "Peticure & Other Stuff". Who knew the
Other Stuff would turn out to be the 1986 World Series?

Though few people are aware of it, the Bill Buckner error probably had
no effect on the outcome of the Series. The Red Sox would have lost
that game anyway. The record throughout the post-season, for both
clubs, was that each time they brought in their "closer" and he was
ineffective, they lost the game.



Well, as a Mets fan, I tend to see that outcome more that way, also-- in
terms of the Mets offense waking up, and putting pressure on the shakiness
of Schiraldi and Hurst.



Argh, I wrote Hurst? I meant Stanley. Hurst started Game 7.
