Thanks for sharing these classic moments. I always count Kirk Gibson’s home run as my first sports memory. I was six at the time and it’s the earliest memory I have of watching pro sports. I then grew up reenacting that moment over and over while repeating Vin’s great call, “In a year that has been so improbable, the impossible has happened!” I’d usually say that to myself as I mimicked Kirk Gibson’s labored home run trot and famous fist pump while rounding my backyard lawn. I teared up a bit rewatching it this morning.
Thank you. Last night was hard for me to get thru. Vin was part of my life since 1959. But that Kirk Gibson HR will always be my highlight.
