That's such a great shot. It surfaced a lot in 2012 WS, and I'm sure will get some more play this year if we get a little further.
Man, I remember that who saga so well. I was 15, totally broken hearted... 3 years removed from a WS, Will the Thrill still in his prime, China Basin ballpark vote fails, George Shinn ownership group falls through.. so bad. The emotional rollercoaster to follow-- Magowan group saves the day then sings Bonds for 7 years $42M, and an amazing and eventually heartbreaking 102 win season to follow. That '93 teams has gotta be one of the best not to make the playoffs.
