1986 was the year my beleoved Mets won their last championship. I thought I watched every game that year that was on TV because I remember not having cable.
However, I don’t remember this incident at all. But, seeing is believing.
The Huffington Post
On Sept. 15, 1986, legend has it that Mike Laga of the St. Louis Cardinals crushed a foul ball out of the old Busch Stadium. Of course, as The FYC pointed out in 2005, nobody remembers witnessing the titanic clout with their own eyes and there has never been any video evidence of the at-bat.. until now.
Thanks to Joe Sports Fan, there is finally proof of Laga's extraordinary accomplishment.
The clip below is from a New York Mets highlight tape and it not only shows Laga's incredible foul ball, but it also shows the fans giving him a standing ovation. Scroll down to watch the video.
