After his 8th-inning, game-tying solo shot off the Braves’ Bob Rush, Pittsburgh’s Roberto Clemente has compatriot Juan Pizarro right where he wants him – namely, ahead, 0-2, in the top of the 10th and thus poised to once again give up a game-winning home run to his fellow Puerto Rican. The two collaborated on a Clemente game-winner back on May 16, 1957and again last year on August 4th. But before the pair from Puerto Rico can try for a trilogy, the skies absolutely open, bringing this tense confrontation to an abrupt and unsatisfying conclusion, no resolution possible as the game will ultimately have to be replayed in its entirety.
