I was not even 1 yr old and didn't obviously see it live, but I have watched several of the replays that ESPN and MLB TV have shown and have discussed it with people who did.

What a GREAT article.
Hall of Famer Juan Marichal threw two scoreless innings. Bench called it one of the most enjoyable experiences he'd ever had. Marichal's control was precise.
"I could have caught him with a pair of pliers," Bench said.
"The umpire asked if I ever threw a ball," Marichal said.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing!
