They're standing up.
Waiting to see if Roger
Is going to hit
Number sixty-one.
Here's the windup.
The pitch to Roger.
Way outside.
Ball one.
The fans are starting to boo.
Low...
Ball two.
That one was in the dirt.
And the boos get louder. Two balls no strikes
On Roger Maris...
Here's the windup.
Fastball
HIT DEEP TO RIGHT-
THIS COULD BE IT.
WAY BACK THERE.
HOLY COW.
HE DID IT.They're fighting for the ball out there.
SIXTY-ONE HOME RUNS.
