1960 – Giddy following their team’s Game 1 win over the heavily favored Yankees, Pirate fans are in for a brutal reality check, as the Big Apple Goliath walks over Steeltown’s David, 16 – 3, to even the World Series at one all. This utterly uncontested affair is little more than batting practice for the Bombers, highlighted by two tremendous opposite field blasts by Mickey Mantle, the latter of which, measured at 478 feet, proves historic – the first time within memory that any right-handed batter has hit a ball out of Forbes Field to the right of dead center.
