Default Prodigous home runs

Posted By: Peter Thomas

In 67 I saw Killebrew hit a home run into the top row of lights in left center, by the 379' marker in left center, must have been 150 feet in the air and just starting to come down - it bore no resemblance to any other home run shot I have seen. It was the last serries of the season and the sox and twins were battling for penant and Yaz was trying for triple crown. Fans gave him a standing ovation. Sox won serries and Yaz and Killebrew ended tied with, I think, 44 homers giving Yaz triple crown.
