Game 6 Re-Enacted in RBI Baseball
A few things about this game. First of all, if you are a Red Sox fan, this is still 8 minutes of pure torture. Even winning it all in 2004 doesn't take away any of the pain from Game 6. Secondly, the person who did this re-enactment points out quite correctly that Buckner takes way too much of the blame. Schiraldi, Stanley and even Gedman (for letting that pitch get away which led to the tying run) were just as guilty if not more than Billy Buck. I don't think the Sox come back to win that game after losing the lead in the tenth. And lastly, Game 6 is all the evidence you need to prove that there is no god. Mets fans might feel differently about this but does anybody really care what a Mets fan cares about? Didn't think so. (Yep, still bitter after twenty years)
so I decided to re-enact Game Six of the 1986 World Series in RBI Baseball, my favorite video game of all time. Game Six is one of the most surreal, unbelievable displays of sports in history, and hopefully now that the Sox have emerged victorious in the World Series, it can be seen more as an utterly stupifying comeback, and less of a devastating choke job.
