Pickoffs, arguments, and an ending no one saw coming made this night unforgettable.

Asked if it was the weirdest game he had ever seen, Hank Aaron answered simply, “uh huh.” On August 17, 1976, the Brewers stunned the A’s with a two-run, bottom-of-the-ninth single off Rollie Fingers to win 4–3, but the path there was… unusual. Milwaukee picked off three Oakland runners—Bert Campaneris once and Billy North twice—while an eighth-inning standoff ended with Billy Williams called out on strikes while standing six feet from the plate. By the final out, even baseball’s greatest hitters were shaking their heads.
