but you can't really play it out that way, the runners could have moved, something could have happened. and you wouldn't pitch the game exactly the same way with runners in different places would you?

No. But you also don't hit the same way. Sundberg might not bunt. McRae might not be intentionally walked. Who knows? It seems very reasonable to at least think the Royals would have gotten one run in that inning, which is all they needed to force extra innings.
It just seems to me that in most "legendary" sports controversies you have a lot more real substance than you had in the 85 series. Upon further review, this is too weak to allow the bitching to continue eternally without an occassional review of facts.
