Something I'll cherish forever.

At the end of the eighth inning, I drove over to my 86-year-old grandpop's house -- a tad bit tired to be sure, but this is something I was waiting 25 years for.

After grandmom died, grandpop lives by himself and, considering his age, this might be his last chance to see a winner.

I arrived just in time to see Longoria pop-out to Chutley.

I asked my grandpop if I can turn down the sound on the TV and turn on radio.

I needed to hear the voice of Harry Kalas call these last two outs.



Then Zobrist lined out to Werth.

And then Lidge struck out Hinske.
