One harmless-looking popup became something else entirely, and Fenway knew it instantly.

In the 13th inning on August 10, 1978, a routine popup unraveled into pure chaos as the Indians lost the ball, the basepaths, and the game. Butch Hobson’s hustle turned a dropped pop fly into a tying run, then moments later, Rick Burleson’s single completed a stunning 6–5 Red Sox win. It was a finish so strange it had to be seen — and read — to be believed.
