Despite winning a batting crown in 1980, representing the Chicago Cubs at the All-Star Game the next season and accumulating over 2,700 hits in his twenty year career, Bill Buckner is best remembered for a crucial fielding error during Game 6 of the 1986 World Series, a play that has since been prominently entrenched into American sports lore. In game 6 of the 1986 World Series, New York came back to tie the game with three straight two out singles off Calvin Schiraldi and a wild pitch by Bob Stanley. Mookie Wilson fouled off several pitches before hitting a slow roller to Buckner at first base. Aware of Wilson's speed, Buckner tried to rush the play, and the ball rolled under his glove, through his legs and into right field, allowing Ray Knight to score the winning run. Bill Buckner has hand signed this 8x10. An MAB Celebrity Services certificate of authenticity is included.
