to know that we still have our rich history to look back on. I understand there aren't many baseball fans here but that's ok but deep down I think we all remember the great days and for me baseball and it's rich American history says it all through the eyes of a baseball fan, kinda long but some great American history here, grab it and never forget it, our past

Jackie Robinson Steals Home, It was the first game of the 1955 World Series between the Dodgers and the Yankees. Trailing 4-6 at the top of the eighth inning with two outs, Jackie Robinson risks 270 feet of progress on the base paths with a daring steal of home, beating Whitey Ford's pitch to the plate. Years later catcher Yogi Berra still maintained Robinson was out.

Sanford "Sandy" Koufax (born Sanford Braun on December 30, 1935 in Brooklyn, New York) is a former left-hand pitcher in Major League Baseball who played his entire career for the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers from 1955 to 1966.
He is best known for his string of six amazing seasons from 1961 to 1966 before arthritis ended his career at the age of 31. A notoriously difficult pitcher to hit against, he was the first major leaguer to pitch more than three no-hitters and a perfect game, the first to allow fewer than seven hits per nine innings pitched over his career, and the first to strike out more than nine batters per nine innings pitched in his career. Among National League pitchers with at least 2,000 innings pitched who have debuted since 1913, he has both the highest career winning percentage (.655) and the lowest career earned run average (2.76); his 2396 career strikeouts ranked 7th in major league history upon his retirement, and trailed only Warren Spahn's total of 2583 among left-handers. Retiring virtually at the peak of his career at age 31, he later became the youngest person ever elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame at age 36. He is arguably the greatest left-handed pitcher of all time.
