One strike away. The 1986 California Angels were one strike away from beating the Boston Red Sox and advancing to the World Series when Donnie Moore faced Dave Henderson. In one of the most significant at-bats in baseball history, Henderson knocked Moore's pitch over the left field fence and the Bosox miraculously went on to win the series.
The pitcher and batter, forever linked in baseball history, are presented here on this dual-signed baseball. Adding to the scarcity is that Moore died at the young age of 35 in 1986. How many of these exist?
