Watching the NL play in game (not looking good for the Bucs down 5-0 in the 6th) and they showed one of my favorite Yankees of all time, San Francisco Giants pitching coach, Dave Righetti. One of the most amazing displays of emotion I ever saw in all my years as a fan happened in the 1986 season during a game between the Yankees and the Blue Jays in Toronto. Dave gave up a game tying HR (I believe it was a grand slam!) in the 9th inning. After receiving a new ball from the ump, Rags turned and in disgust fired the ball over the right field fence. It took a while to locate this clip but it was worth it just to hear Scooter Rizzuto again…
