Tony Solaita hitting a 500 foot HR in Tiger Stadium. The ball hit about 20 feet below the spot where Reggie hit his in the ASG. A true "bomb".
Hal McRae whacking an Oakland fan with an umbrella after somebody poured beer on him in the OF in Sept of 76 as the boys were fighting for their first pennant.
Frank White beating the living shit out of a fastball while being the 1st 2b to bat cleanup in a WS since Jackie Robinson. That HR went into the bowels of Busch Stadium and was never found again.
Amos Otis hitting the 1st base bag wrong in his first AB in the 76 ALCS, causing him to miss the rest of the series. Changed everything.
Danny Jackson winning the two biggest games in Royals history. Both game 3 of the ALCS and Game 3 of the WS after we had dropped the first two of each series. No Danny J = no championship.
