Yes, Jack Morris was great, but Chuck Knoblauch's fake on Lonnie Smith saved the shutout. No way Smith shouldn't have scored on Terry Pendleton's double to the left-center gap"He didn't do very good baserunning. Terrible by Lonnie," Jack Buck said."Look at Knoblauch," added analyst Tim McCarver.

With 55,000 fans expecting a bunt, Shane Mack grounded into a double play with runners on first and second and nobody out in the ninth. The intentional walk to Mike Pagliarulo brings up pinch-hitter Paul Sorrento, who had four home runs in 47 at-bats in 1991.

If Sorrento gets a hit instead of striking out, we'd have been talking for years and years about how two obscure players -- Sorrento and pinch-runner Jarvis Brown -- combined for the dramatic end of the World Series. Brown was a late-season call-up who hit .216 in 37-at-bats.

Thanks for hanging out with us during the game replay (or reading it later). Game 7 will be replayed again at 11 p.m. tonight and 2 p.m. Thursday. It's not a substitute for the home opener, but it's a good way to spend some time with baseball fans #AloneTogether.
