Harry, Jimmy and Fisk hits the game winner. I remember coming home from school and seeing the Fisk HR.

Enjoy.

I forgot that those horrible unis lasted that long :shock:

I also forgot how Harry and Jimmy gave no fucks as to their comments :D . You don't hear those kinds of PbP/color commentary in any sport these days.

Harry was a much better Sox announcer than the caricature he was with the Cub. That's the guy I remember being good.

Harry and Jimmy….this was as good as it gets. They were funny, enthusiastic, and real. Harry became a such a sad shell of himself.

agreed. They are a big part of my childhood baseball memories.

I also thought Hawk and Whimpy were a great combination

I remember having that on in the backround as I was playing with my friends in my basement during spring break. I remember doing a little dance when he hit that home run

That version seems much more blue than I remember them. I remember them as being almost black. I didn't like the combination with the white pants but I loved the all dark uniforms with the nose picker collars

Enjoyed the win. Rich Hill is old and bad and like many others, have to be concerned about Robin managing the bullpen and guys creating outs on the base paths.

I stand at 82 wins, no playoffs. Robin gone at end of season where he voluntarily retires to spend time with family.
