rickey henderson homes twice off 300 game winners

Rickey Henderson becomes the first player in baseball history to hit a home run off two different 300-game winners in the same game

At Cleveland Stadium, Rickey Henderson becomes the first player in baseball history to hit a home run off two different 300-game winners in the same game. The left fielder’s solo homer in the eighth inning off Phil Niekro and his two-run blast in the ninth off Steve Carlton aren’t enough to thwart the Tribe’s 6-5 walk-off victory over the Yankees.
