PASJDOK maybe it technically wasn't a playoff game, but the best game I have seen was the Bucky Dent game in the 1978 one game playoff between the Yanks and Sox. That game truly had it all, right down to the last pitch with Yaz facing Gossage with two men on. Second best (do you detect a bias?) 6th game of the 1976 World Series. Drama and great plays and twists start to finish. Kirk Gibson was a great MOMENT but it was not a great game overall as I recall. As an aside, what on EARTH is Terry Francona thinking leaving Varitek in to catch Wakefield? Three passed balls in one inning, not to mention the number of pitches he couldn't handle that didn't matter because men were not on base.
