One of my most memorable moments as a young Dodger fan was when Chuck Essegian hit a pinch -hit homerun in game two of the 1959 World Series, to tie the game. I was only eight years old at the time, but I could tell from the excitement in Vin Scully’s voice that this home run was a very dramatic and important moment for the Dodgers. I can also remember that watching him circle the bases gave me goose-bumps of excitement. I thought that was so cool, and I began dreaming that I might too hit a dramatic home run for the Dodgers.
