Miley BB CD 1986 World Series Game 6
Called by Sparky Anderson and Jack Buck

The game is tied entering the 10th inning, when Boston scores twice to win its first World Series since 1918.  Well, almost.  The Mets come back to score 3 in their half of the inning, with Mookie Wilson's grounder past Bill Buckner the key play.
