      You beat me to it. She's risen to become my favorite narrator.
      It was a slow conversion, because I was raised, like everyone else, to understand sports through the filter of male voices only.
      The rasp of Johnny Most. The monosyllabic bass of John Madden. My grandfather passing the torch of Boston's epic tragedies and glorious conquests to my dad.
      You get it. Bobby Orr was god. Then Larry Bird was Jesus, while Red Sox broke our hearts and tested our faith.
      There was not a single drop of femininity involved.
      So, kudos to Ms. Morris for her wry delivery, omniscient understanding of nuance, and her journalistic integrity- unbiased and unsympathetic.
      She says, "You knew the outcome, but I'm going make you believe that the fictional is possible. Here is glory and here is agonizing defeat. That's life, boys."

    The Jeffrey Maier incident gets all the attention & the O’s taking 2 in the Bronx changes the complexion of the series, but the real turning point was Todd Zeile’s botched fake throw that led to the Yankees taking the lead in G3. Very next batter, Mussina serves up a hanger that Cecil Fielder hits halfway to Lutherville & the Orioles never really challenged again. Ultimately I think the Yankees would have won the series as they had the better team. Now 97, the Orioles blew an absolute golden opportunity against Cleveland. After that, Peter Angelos forces out Davey Johnson & the team doesn’t sniff the postseason again for 14 years

    • @epaddon
      @epaddon 2 місяці тому +5

      Exactly. That was the turning point because the Orioles were four outs away from going up 2-1 with the worst Yankee starter, Kenny Rogers, throwing the next day. The Zeile play which allowed Bernie Williams to score the go-ahead run (after BJ Surhoff had done an excellent job holding Bernie at third) rattled Mussina who then gave up a homer to Fielder that made it into the first row despite the wind blowing everything back (other nights that would have gone fifty feet further). The Maier play did not demoralize the Orioles like Kirk Gibson's homer demoralized the A's in 1988. They bounced back in Game 2 and could have put a chokehold on the series in Game 3 but in the end they just came unraveled and proved why they were not the better team that year.

      So if the Maier incident never happens or was correctly called then the orioles still could have been up 2-1 with Kenny Rogers going in game 4. Hence the reason it gets so much attention. It was the start of a decade and half long series of events that always seemed to benefit the Yankees. See the “Jeter flip” against the A’s. Then again maybe the Oriole’s spirit was broken in game 3 due to the incident in game 1 & their feeling was no matter how great we play everything is just going to come up roses for the Yankees. Regardless the fact that play was allowed to happen is a disgrace to this day. Who knows if it helps the orioles win, but it’s still a disgrace.

      Some of us in Baltimore knew it was the umps fault for blowing the call and were more annoyed at Tarasco than the kid because Tony didn’t jump. The ball likely would have hit off the top of his glove due to him staying on the warning track. The ump also definitely calls interference if Tony jumps for the ball.

    I thought Buck Showalter was awesome, but in the bottom of the 9th in game 5 of the 1995 ALDS in Seattle, he left David Cone on the mound after he'd thrown over 140 pitches and could no longer throw strikes. I've never understood that decision. Cone walked the bases loaded then gave up the tying run, and the Mariners won it two innings later. There were bullpen arms available and Cone was already getting hit hard in the 8th. Letting him pitch the 9th was highly questionable; leaving him in after he was so obviously spent was baffling. Buck gave Seattle that series. So I fully expected Steinbrenner to fire him and I thought it was merited.

    • @hennylo68

      I always liked Buck as a Yankee fan and always defended him but it's a reason why the Yankees won a ring right after he was gone. Same with the D-Backs who won it the following year after letting him go. He was more of the in between skipper while you find your permanent one.

      So its not a HR, its a double (the ball clearly doesnt go over the fence). After that double, the Yankees got a single Line Drive to Deep 1B. If Jeter doesnt score from 2nd, the Yankees doesnt score on that drive. It completely change the outcome of the game.

      Ball was just gonna bounce off the wall anyway if the kid doesn't interfere. Tarasco was in no position to make the catch not even jumping. At least that's what my 10th grade gym teacher said when he overheard us kids talking about the game.

    • @scrub_jay
      @scrub_jay 2 місяці тому +4

      This is crazy to me. The kid reaches over the fence by like two feet and the ball is coming almost straight down. It's counterintuitive but the fact that Tarasco doesn't jump is actually MORE evidence that he definitely would've caught it, and they actually mention this on the broadcast. To say that the outcome wouldn't change if it had been a double instead of a home run is kinda ridiculous tbh. Not saying the Orioles def win the game but it was a huge change in win probability.

    I'm pretty sure the spitting incident is why Alomar didn't get voted into the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility (73.7% in 2010). But it really sucks that the only person in Cooperstown wearing a Toronto Blue Jays cap ended up getting placed on the ineligible list for creeping. (Not Mel Hall bad, but you can't get much worse than that.)
    We really need a makeup since Roy Halladay's family made the right call with leaving his cap blank though. I hear there's this guy Dave Steib who was pretty good for the Blue Jays in the 1980s.

    Talk radio was full of callers questioning Bernie Williams during the 96 season. Well he answered with many years of clutch performance. I believe he was 26 that year which is often the make or break age. Make he did.
    I understand being upset by the Mayer incident but I and a friend were seated next to the right field foul pole. Jeter hit the ball very high and we followed it to the top of the wall. We were perhaps 30 feet away. We looked at each other and asked what happened. It seemed that the ball hit the top of the wall, but it was difficult to be certain. The umpire didn’t have a chance of getting it right unfortunately for you who are O’s fans.
    The stadium full of fans was awesome that night. Roberto was booed mercilessly. Assh___, ASSh___. ASSH___!!! was the chant. I remember Palmeiro’s home run sailing by as I returned from the restroom. Strawberry was loved by the fans, Ripken looked old at short, and Bernie became an all time Yankee great.

    I love how people (O’s fans), gaslight about this game as if Maier catching the ball was some seminal moment in baseball history that could have launched THEM as the iconic dynasty of the late 90s, while the Yankees reverted to chronic underachievers. That Orioles team had like 5 HOFers and choked at home later in that series when they couldn’t contain Strawberry and Fielder. They would lose the ALCS the following season as well (against Cleveland this time), then completely fell off for the next 15 years. They completely wasted Cal Ripken’s prime, missing the postseason every year from 1984 to 1995, then developed only two more great players in the next 30+ years (Mussina and Machado, both of whom fled in free agency.)They didn’t return to relevance until a brief window in the 2010s, and then finally emerged as a dominant force this decade, although they still haven’t made a WS since 1983.
    But yeah, a 12-year old kid reaching over the fence for a baseball was the problem.
