Baseball Equipment Info

It was a baseball game you would never forget if you had either seen it on TV or heard it on the Radio. Game 7 of the 1960 World Series featured the Pittsburgh Pirates and the heavily favored New York Yankees. It was the bottom of the 9^th inning and Bill Mazeroski hit a game-ending, World Series winning home run to left field.

“Maz” grew up in a one room house near Wheeling, WV and pretended to play baseball with a wooden stick and a rock because his family couldn’t afford either a baseball glove or a baseball bat. The Hall of Famer now has a street named after him, and is getting this 12’ tall statue of him rounding second base with his batting helmet held high in his right hand, after hitting the homerun, erected outside of PNC Park. Thanks for the memories Bill…
