Miley BB CD 1969 NLCS Game 3 Mets-Braves
Called by Lindsey Nelson  Ralph Kiner and Bob Murphy

Nolan Ryan enters the game in the third inning, with runners on second and third, and no outs.  He gets out of that jam unscathed, and goes on to pitch 7 strong innings for the win.  It's the Mets' first N.L. pennant, and the the New York fans are delirious.
