Sorry again, Ron; I just re-read your post & realized you were talking about
a different game.
Oddly enough, Rick Camp's homerun was included on the video "50 Greatest
Homeruns of All-Time". That video came out about 15 years ago; not sure it
Camp's HR would still make the cut, but it might; that game is legendary.
