The stage was set between the "Big Red Machine" and the shocking Red Sox who had swept through the Oakland Athletics. The teams jockeyed back and forth with Fisk’s magical homer setting the stage for a Game 7 to decide it all. Boston seized a 3-0 lead in the third inning but the Reds came back and pulled it out in the end. Official Spalding NL ball (Feeney) has fine use and was purchased from the Reds’ gift shop with their certificate of authenticity. Ball is in NRMT condition.
