Donny, is this too soon? 😂 @CashLumber
October 9, 1960 was pivotal Game 4 of the 1960 World Series because it completely shifted the momentum of the series. The Pittsburgh Pirates, who had been badly outscored in their earlier losses, eked out a 3–2 win over the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.

Key points:

• Vern Law and Roy Face combined to hold down the Yankees’ powerful lineup, proving the Pirates could win in New York.

• The victory gave Pittsburgh a 2–2 series tie, erasing the Yankees’ apparent dominance from their lopsided wins.

• Without that Game 4 win, the Pirates likely would have fallen behind 3–1 in the Series, a deficit that would have been nearly impossible to overcome against the mighty Yankees.

It was a turning point that kept Pittsburgh alive—setting the stage for Bill Mazeroski’s legendary Game 7 home run.

Happy Thursday friends and card folk!🌞
Have a great day. 🤝
