Hey Todd! Yeah - strange sequence to end the game, for sure. Maybe Chico attempted to bunt the runner over and failed, having to swing away later in the at bat? Mel Queen was hitting a blistering .188 with a .435 OPS going into the game. Hopefully Pete wasn't betting on the Reds yet, or I suspect he would have punched out the manager!
Thanks, Michael - I think I'll hang onto it for now - pretty neat thinking about it's origin 51 years ago!
