It has been more than 23 years since that famous baseball game that the fans of the Mets will never forget and the fans of the Red Sox would like to forget. This game will never be forgotten and it was a crazy night in baseball history.

The Boston Red Sox and the New York Mets went to the World Series in 1986. It was destined to be a remarkable game as they were both at the top of their leagues.

It really surprised a lot of people when the Red Sox came away with the win during games one and two that took place in New York. For the Mets, along with their fans, this was a real downer.

But, lo and behold, the Mets luck changed and they won the third and fourth games to make the series even. However, the Red Sox then got the victory in the fifth game and had a great chance of bringing the series to an end with a win in the sixth game.

This is what it appeared was going to happen when the Red Sox were leading by two runs and the game was in the bottom of the 9th with no Mets players on any of the bases. Everyone assumed the game was nearly over and the celebration had almost begun.

Somehow, the Mets kept the game alive with a few base hits after being down to their last strike on several occasions. Before long, a wild pitch sent a runner home, tying up the game. The crowd was uproarious; this was history in the making.

Then, something very unexpected happened next. The first base line is where Mookie Wilson hit a dribbler to and it should have been a super-easy out and the end of the game. However, the ball traveled right through Bill Buckner’s legs which resulted in a run being scored by Ray Knight and the Mets getting the win.

After winning the sixth game, the Mets then also won the seventh game of that World Series. It was truly one of the greatest and quite memorable games that was ever played in professional baseball history.

Many baseball fans will still claim to this day that this was the best baseball game ever played. Based on the way this all happened, they may very well be right.
