Tommy Henrich...."Old Reliable"

GOD Bless Tommy Henrich

What can you say when a guy strikes out in the 9th inning of a World Series game, which then allows his team to go on to win
this pivotal game in the Series ? That's what you call "clutch swinging". Everyone surely knows of Tommy's famous "3rd strike"
passed ball play 68 years ago in 4th game of the 1941 World Series (Yankees vs Dodgers).
Tommy, indeed, was one of the best clutch hitters to ever play the game. And, certainly one of the most reliable hitters when
his teammates were in scoring position that I remember seeing from 1947 to 1951.
