over the Green Monster in Fenway propelling the Yankees into the American League Playoffs and eliminated Red Socks. I remember the game as a kid cause the Yankees went on to beat the Dodgers a second time in two years crushing me. To this day it is saying in Boston when something unexpectedly bad happens that was a "Bucky F-ing Dent". I wonder if 50 years from now the Canucks will be saying "Miguel F-ing Rojas".
