Robin Ventura came up for the Mets. He had gone 1 for 18 in the series. He was hobbled by a sore left knee, playing "on one leg," as Valentine put it. Then he made the swing a ballplayer dreams about. He smashed one through the rain and the night and over the right-center wall. He rounded first base and was mobbed before he made it to second, and he never got any farther.
--From "No Backing Down" by Michael Bamberger, Sports Illustrated, October 25,1999
