I followed every game of that series. Even though some were weekday afternoon games.
I'll never forget watching (on the b&w tv) Freehan settle in to catch a pop-up for the final out of the series. And who could forget Lolich winning three games!! Has that ever been done by another pitcher??
Bob Gibson was supposed to handily beat the Tigers....nope.
