Surreal is an excellent choice of words to describe this World Series game. The Dodgers pitcher, Sal Maglie, pitched a great game, also. But, one pitch too good for Mickey Mantle,
who hit a HR.
Here we are 59 years later; and, I will never forget Mantle's catch in deep Left-Centerfield to rob Gil Hodges of a possible inside-the-park HR. Hodges hit the ball approx. 440 feet.
