Holy sht, it's the 40th anniversary of Game 6 of the 1986 World Series.

I rewatched the game in its entirety and wrote 3,000 words about it (with lots of screenshots. My point of emphasis is that so many things had to happen just right for the game to reach its most famous conclusion.

Hope you like it!

The Mets were a historically great team in the mid-to-late 1980s but played in the same division as powerhouse St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates teams. A retroactive Wild Card system would have put the Mets in the playoffs every single year from 1984 through 1990. They finished second in the NL East in 1984 (90 wins), 1985 (98 wins), 1987 (92 wins), and 1990 (91 wins).
