October 25, 1986

One strike from defeat, the Mets tie the game on a wild pitch and then, thanks to Bill Buckner's error, win Game 6 knotting the Fall Classic at three games apiece. This event was selected as one of baseball's 30 most memorable moments.

BUCKNER!!!!

I feel for the guy. The only thing you'll ever be remembered for is something you'll do 1/10.

I think if Buckner fielded it cleanly he had no chance to get Mookie Wilson at first.

Feel bad for Buckner. People rarely mention that it was Bob Stanley's wild pitch that probably played an even bigger role in the inning.

Buckner had a borderline Hall of Fame career. Poor guy.
