26 years ago today, possibly the most dramatic at bat in MLB history happened. On two bad legs and literally barely able to walk, Kirk Gibson hits a two run walk off home run off of Hall of Famer Dennis Eckersley to win game 1 of the 1988 World Series. Nobody thought Gibson would even play and legend has it that his screams of pain could be heard from the dugout as he took practice swings in the clubhouse. Enjoy the video and Vin Scullys classic call.
