Most important hit?
I would think that Maz's homer would be most important as it won the 1960 World Series. But don't forget about Hal Smith hitting the 3 run HR in the bottom of the 8th that gave the Pirates a 2 run lead going into the 9th. If the Yanks hadn't tied the game with 2 runs in the 9th then Smith would have been the Hero. Maz wouldn't have come to bat or make the HOF. For my money, from that team, Dick Groat should be in the Hall and not Maz. Just my opinion.
