Maris hits solo HR in the 5th.Game 7 at Candlestick Park, Ralph Terry vs Jack Sanford – The two best pitchers of the series square off in the finale, and what a climax, as this 1-0 thriller will always be the most remembered game of the series! The only run scores in the 5th, when Kubek grounds into a double play, with Bill Skowron scoring from third. In the last of the ninth with two outs and runners on second and third, Willie McCovey smashes a rocket shot right at Bobby Richardson, who grabs it and hangs on for the final out as the Yankees win their 20th World Championship!
