1986 World Series, Game 6--the video game

[Bill V]

Thought some of you might get a kick out of this. Some guy wanted to make a video of the bottom of the tenth inning of Game 6 of the 1986 World Series--using his favorite video game of all time, "RBI Baseball" on the original Nintendo game system. So he set up his recording software, purchased an online video of the game so he would have the exact sequence of events as well as a copy of Vin Scully's original play-by-play, and then played for hours to get all the plays, every single pitch, to happen exactly correctly. He then edited it all together, and came up with this...



Enjoy!

That had to take a while to do. I give him credit for the accomplishment and maybe he'll get some recognition from Nintendo. I remember that video game, loved it.
