    I don't know why the broadcast was unique, but it was the only World
    Series that featured a walkoff home run in game 7 of the series. There
    was a walkoff home run that ended the 1993 World Series, but it was only
    game 6 that time.

    The Pirates had a 9-7 lead with the Yankees batting in the top of the
    9th inning. The Yankees pushed across 2 runs to tie the game at 9-9. The Pirates came up in the bottom of the 9th and Bill Mazeroski led off with
    a game and series winning home run off of Ralph Terry as the Pirates won
    the series despite being outscored 55-27 across the 7 games. The Yankees
    3 wins were by scores of 10-0, 12-0, and 16-3, but the Pirates 4 wins
    were by scores of 6-4, 3-2, 5-2 and 10-9.

    Ralph Terry redeemed himself in game 7 of the 1962 World Series as he
    shut out the Giants 1-0 in game 7 of that series as the Yankees won it.
    The series ended with 2 outs and Matty Alou on third base and Willie
    Mays on second base. A single there would most likely score both of them
    and the Giants would win the game and the series. The batter, Willie
    McCovey, ripped a hard line drive, but it was right at the Yankees
    2Bman, Bobby Richardson, who squeezed it to end the series.

    If it involves the Yankees losing that's a good enough explanation for me.
