The only pitcher to hit a home run in Game 7 of the World Series

[Diamond_Dog]

The Cardinals’ Bob Gibson (in 1967 vs. the Boston Red Sox)

[Captain Zero]

1. I would have guessed Don Drysdale because

He was actually a pretty good hitter.

[nevergiveup]

2. Gibson was so good at bat

he was sometimes used as a pinch hitter.

3. Did you see Zack Grienke

got a pinch hit single in last night’s WS game.

Bobby Cox used to use Tom Glavine as a pinch hitter too IIRC

4. They kept talking about Geinke's 9 HR's

Gibson had 24. One year he batted .303

5. Wow.

You never hear much about what a good hitter he was, thanks, Casady1.
