      You mean best non catch that was ruled a catch. I guarantee today's video replay review would have showed he didn't catch it. Brunansky didn't make that catch, which was clear watching the game on TV however it was in the corner and with him diving and rolling and then the fans pouring out the umps couldn't see anything and Brunansky emerged like he caught it, which was a total farce. There's another full game video where announcer even said on the broadcast he dropped it. There's a reason they didn't show the replay on ESPN. Announcers even said he dropped the ball and during the game itself the replay showed it bounced out and he regrabbed it after hitting the ground, which is why you'll see him grab back at something (it was the ball). Some ppl lke to say he was going back for his hat however you'll see there was no hat on him when he ran in. No video replay review back then. smh Red Sox stole the pennant and would have had to play the Jays for the pennant next game if not for that "catch" if the Blue Jays won but the Red Sox game happened before the Jays game and Jays lost because they no longer had anything to play for.

    Back in 1989 my high school baseball coach knew Tom Brunanski and he invited him to practice with our team. One day I was watching him take batting practice in our batting cage. He was using wooden Louisville Slugger bats. Well he cracked one of them and gave it to me. He was on the Cardinals at that time and was using a Pedro Guerrero model. It was huge and heavy!!! I still have it to this day. It’s broke in such a way that one can’t tell if it’s broke or not when looking at it from the label. Also, I played 3rd base at the time and we would have scrimmages. One game Tom was on the other team and when he came up to bat I was playing third and freaking out because I was afraid would rip one right at me. Thankfully he hit it somewhere else.

      eyesofnight If memory serves..the Sox were 1 game up on us, so we needed to win and the sox needed to lose to force a tiebreaker. I believe Brunansky's catch came before the end of the jays game and at the time the jays were winning their game which made it that much harder to take. Of course the Orioles ended up walking us off, but it was a hell of an ending.

    • @uzit2161

      That wasn't even a catch. Today's replay review would have shown it wasn't a catch but because of the angle for the umps combined with Brunansky rolling around and fans pouring out they had to let it stand. Jays knew they were out and let the last game escape them because of it. If White Sox won that game, which they should have and Blue Jays won it would have forced a final game between the Jays and Sox for the pennant. I'm still salty about that so called "catch" and have hated the Red Sox and Fenway since. Brunansky obviously went back and grabbed at something (and is wasn't his hat... he emerged running without his hat) and announcers said it wasn't a catch if you watch the other full video on youtube. There's a reason ESPN didn't show any of the replays regarding that catch except the one that obstructed the view. smh
