On October 13, 1960, Pirates second baseman William Stanley Mazeroski came to bat in the bottom of the 9th inning of Game 7 of the World Series at Forbes Field with the Pittsburgh Pirates tied with the New York Yankees, three games apiece, and the score tied 9-9. With no outs and no one on base, he hit a 1-0 pitch at 3:36 p.m. for the only walk-off home run in a Game 7 to win a World Series, sending the ball over the 406-foot sign on the outfield wall and creating one of the greatest moments in Pittsburgh sports history.
