What I rember most about Kurt Gibsons home run in the world series is the great call of Vin Scully I believe it was...... I don't believe what I just saw.

Sometimes great moments in sports/horseracing become unforgetable when articulated bt a great racecall or play by play announcer. Keep up the great work Vic!
I applaud your referencing of Gibson's HR as it is my fondest of sports memories. A few minor corrections though: Kirk Gibson. And the call you're referring to was the national TV broadcast call by Jack Buck " And I dont believe what i just saw...........i dont believe what i just saw." Brilliant.

Vin's call was over the radio and as a whole captured the entire at-bat in the way that only he can.

For what its worth, I liked Vic's call of this one. I'm a SA and DM guy though....so Denman is the don imo.
