Bill Mazeroski and the 1960 World Series
Bill Mazeroski hit one of the most famous home runs in baseball history.
His leadoff home run in the bottom of the ninth inning of game 7, won the 1960 World Series for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
It was a great upset win for the Pirates who defeated the heavily favored New York Yankees.
In real life, Mickey Mantle cried after the defeat.
In the movie, “Bronx Tale,” the young character “C” is very upset when the Yankees lost the 1960 World Series. He is told Mickey Mantle does not care about him so why care so much?!!
