Game 7 of the 1960 World Series between the Pirates and the Yankees in Forbes Field. Until Mazeroski ended a back-and-forth finale with a solo shot to left leading off the bottom of the ninth to give Pittsburgh a 10-9 win over the mighty Yanks, a World Series had never ended on a home run. "Cheers" writer and co-producer Ken Levine (now a Mariners broadcaster) chose this game for his trip on our WABAC machine. "To me, this game had everything you could ask for -- high drama, a happy ending and no walk-up music," he said.
